Schedule of values
The Payment claims function has its own schedule of values page. You can add a schedule item to the payment claim, so the payment claim is associated to work on the project. After the payment claim is certified, you can convert the schedule item to a payment form instead of having to create the payment form from a line item. You can also convert a certified payment claim to a contract claim without leaving the Schedule of values page.
