	<GeneralSection><Paragraph>Progress Invoicing is an invoice type that resembles the Installment type. In this procedure, the installment amount depends on the project's progress and the element's sales rates. Progress invoice specifications involve invoicing partial contract amounts at agreed intervals, for example, every four weeks. You then release this data to the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/ci/sli" role="module">Sales Invoicing</GUIRef> module.</Paragraph>
		<Paragraph>The fixed amount of all the installments equals the total contract price. If progress is 100%, you can invoice the entire contract amount.</Paragraph>

			<ListItem>Define the invoice type in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tp/pdm/tppdm6500m000" role="session">Projects (tppdm6500m000)</GUIRef> session. Select <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tp/domains/pdm.agty#contract" role="enum">Fixed Price Contract</GUIRef> in the Agreement Type field and <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tp/domains/pdm.invm#inst.spec" role="enum">Progress Invoice</GUIRef> in the Invoice Type field.</ListItem>
			<ListItem>Enter element data in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tp/ptc/tpptc1500m000" role="session">Elements (tpptc1500m000)</GUIRef> session. This data is the basis for setting up installment specifications such as the project element's sales unit, sales quantity, and sales price. The sum of the element sales prices times the quantitiy is equal to the fixed contract price.</ListItem>
			<ListItem>Enter the element progress in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tp/ppc/tpppc1150s000" role="session">Element Physical Progress (tpppc1150s000)</GUIRef> session. You generate installments based on the element data and the element progress using the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tp/pin/tppin1210m000" role="session">Create Progress Invoice Installments (tppin1210m000)</GUIRef> session. Transfer the project data to <GUIRef href="/baanerp/ci/sli" role="module">Sales Invoicing</GUIRef> with the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tp/pin/tppin4200m000" role="session">Transfer Project Data to Central Invoicing (tppin4200m000)</GUIRef> session.</ListItem>
