Select a date for the payment pattern start date. This field enables you to have control over the payment date for the recurring payments. To decide on the payment date, you have to choose between the Payment pattern start date or the Difference between payment date and closure date (in days).

Difference between payment date and closure date (in days)

See Payment pattern start date.

Split method for assignments

Select the relevant method that should be applied when generating contract lines (type: Assignments) to the subcontractor's contract. The selected method defines how these contract lines are grouped geographically (based on the location of the linked properties). The selected method should match the subcontractor's preferences. See Split method for outsourcing

Adjustable payment schedule?

With this setting, you decide whether or not you allow flexible payments on subcontractor contracts that are linked to the framework agreement. The field is set to No by default. See Adjustable payment schedule.

Regular payment frequency?

If Adjustable payment schedule? is set to Yes, this setting becomes relevant. As regular payment intervals are the norm, Yes is selected by default in this field. The commitments are generated with the amounts set to zero. The amounts can then be adjusted freely.

You can allow the use of payments with irregular intervals, by setting this field to No. In that case, no commitments are generated. You must create them manually.

Copy data from previous outsourced assignment?

With this field set to Yes (= default value), most field values in a generated outsourced assignment, excluding the amount, are copied from the previous outsourced assignment. This will save time filling in data. With this field set to No, there is no check against any previous outsourced assignments.

Copy amount from previous outsourced assignment?

With this field set to Yes (= default value), most field values in a generated outsourced assignment, including the amount, are copied from the previous outsourced assignment. This will save time filling in data. The default value is No.
