Operational sequence

Follow the work from first move to final handoff.

Each stage carries the production record forward so the next team begins with the context it needs.

  1. Submit

    Record the vendor obligation

    Bring vendor invoices and requests into accounts payable with the vendor, client, project, budget, and supporting context responsible teams need.

  2. Review

    Check the request and its source

    Review documentation, coding, project and budget context, and questions before an obligation moves forward.

  3. Approve

    Record the responsible approval

    Route the obligation to the right production, accounting, and finance reviewers with the decision history attached.

  4. Fund

    Connect vendor and client funds context

    Keep the approved obligation and available client funds context visible before payment activity begins.

  5. Batch

    Organize approved payment batches

    Group ready obligations for controlled review, approval, and finance follow-through.

  6. Pay

    Follow payment status and history

    Give responsible teams and the vendor portal clear payment status and history without implying completion before confirmed status.

  7. Resolve

    Keep exceptions visible through resolution

    Return questions, holds, and failed obligations to the responsible team, preserve the resolution, and reconnect the outcome to project, budget, and reporting context.
