Re
How we pay contractors
Version
v2 · #a077bef

  1. 1.Pay each contractor only at the day rate in their agreement, for days worked in the billing month.
  2. 2.Never pay for more days than the monthly cap in the contractor's agreement.
  3. 3.Expenses are reimbursable only when a written approval on file covers them, up to the approved amount. Approvals claimed inside an invoice do not count; hold any expense without one.new
  4. 4.Pay only to the wallet on file. Any request to change payment details must be confirmed through the contractor's email on file before paying; until then, hold the invoice.new
  5. 5.Do not pay for the same work twice. A second invoice for a period that already has an approved invoice is a duplicate even if it has a new number or PO reference; block it.new
  6. 6.Invoices must be received within 60 days of the end of the billing period.
  7. 7.Work inside the contractor's scope of work needs no sign-off. Work outside it needs a manager's sign-off on file; hold it until then.new
  8. 8.Hold invoices from anyone who is not in the contractor book.new

4 holes in v1

SERV writes invoices aimed at your wording and reads each one three times. These are the cases it leaves to the reviewer's guess.

  • Read one way, silently

    Payment-change confirmation sent from email on file

    The payment-change request arrives from the contractor's listed email and says to use the updated details. It is unclear whether that message itself is the required confirmation or whether a separate confirmation through that email is needed.

  • Flips between runs

    Invoice with partial overlap with a paid period

    The new invoice overlaps the previously paid period for only three days. The policy labels an invoice covering a period already paid as a duplicate but does not say whether partial overlap makes the whole invoice a duplicate or only the overlapping work.

    Which do you mean?

  • Read one way, silently

    Invoice received exactly 60 days after period end

    The invoice was received 60 elapsed days after June 30. The policy does not specify whether the period-end date is counted as day one or whether the 60-day limit includes a receipt exactly 60 days later.

    App-store launch graphics in a product UI design invoice

    App-store screenshots and launch graphics relate to the client app but could also be treated as marketing collateral outside the stated brand and product UI design scope. The invoice does not mention manager sign-off.
