Questions

The builder has a portal. Do I still need invoices?

Many subs keep their own: the PO, the lot and the extras in one place, and a record of every check against them.

Can extras go on the lot’s invoice?

Yes. Add the extra as a line with its VPO number, on the same lot’s invoice or its own.

Does BillGrid track crews or materials?

It tracks what you bill: time, expenses and the invoices. Schedule crews wherever you do now.
