Overview

Link payment terms from an estimate to schedules or milestones so you can connect project execution with payment schedules, manage receivables, and monitor upcoming payments.


1. Link Payment Terms to a Schedule

  1. Open the required Project.
  2. Go to Execution → Schedule and open the Gantt View.
  3. Find the schedule or milestone.
  4. Click the three-dot menu (⋮) and select Link Estimate Payment Terms.

The Link Estimate Payment Terms page shows the estimate name, total estimate value, and the available installments:

FieldDescription

StatusCurrent status, such as Pending.

2. Select and Save Payment Terms

You can link one or several installments to the same schedule.

  3. Check the count shown on the Save Links button.
  4. Click Save Links.

For example, select Payment 1 and Payment 2 from an estimate with six installments and link both to one schedule.



3. View Linked Payment Terms
