When You Should Approve Your Payment in Pegasus
Approve your Payment in Pegasus when:
Pay Estimate quantities have been reconciled or agreed upon and all necessary adjustments have been made for the payment period.
Pay Application payments have been added and your Retainage withheld and released math checks out.
It is ok to leave your Payment in a Draft state for as long as necessary. Once you Approve your Payment you want to be certain all math and totaling calculations are agreed upon.
What Happens When I Approve a Payment?
