Billing Schedules

A Billing Schedule defines the schedule to bill over the term of the contract. Schedules are created by the contracting department and will most commonly be manually entered. They may also be loaded by Central Finance via an EIB, if there are more than 24 invoice installments.

There are two different Billing Methods you’ll see on Billing Schedules associated with GASB related lease contracts: Custom or Spread Even. A Schedule with the Billing Method of Spread Even distributes the payments evenly over the life of the contract. Schedules with the Custom Billing Method allows you to create a schedule with custom installment amounts and/or dates.

If there are more than 24 invoice installments and you wish to have the schedule loaded via an EIB, email WorkdayFinancials to request an EIB spreadsheet. The contracting department will be responsible for adding schedule information to the spreadsheet before returning it to WorkdayFinancials to be uploaded.

Customer Invoices

Customer Invoices, in most cases, will be created from a Billing Schedule. Each lease customer contract will have a minimum of one billing schedule for Installments. If there is a Prepayment, Deposit or NonLease Component you may have additional Billing Schedules.

The Installment Billing Schedule is entered based on the rates determined in the contract. The schedule can be created manually by the contracting department, or, if the number of installments exceeds 24, it can be uploaded by Central Finance.

The Invoice Date must be in the same month as the billing period. For example, if you are billing for 5/1 through 5/31, the Invoice Date should be 5/1. Payments that come in before the invoice date cannot be applied to the invoice. Payments received prior to the Invoice Date will be placed On Account for the appropriate department. Each department will be responsible for applying the payment on or after the Invoice Date.

This task can be completed by the PC Department Accounting Manager.

Lease Amendments

The Customer Lease Amortization Schedule Calculator (Calculator) that was created for the original contract should be updated with a new Tab for an amendment when the Contract Amount or To Dates change.

If the amendment is for NonLease Components, the additional tab on the Calculator is not required. Documentation to support the NonLease Component increase should be attached to the amendment. An amendment for NonLease Components simply involves adding a new line, or updating the value and date on an existing line, like you would with any standard Customer Contract.

Changes in the Contract Amount or To or From Dates will require modification to Revenue Recognition Schedule and Billing Schedule(s). Changes can be entered manually by the contracting department. If there are more than 24 installments to update or enter, changes may be uploaded by Central Finance.
