LTD COMPANY:

We operate on 30 day payment terms. Worksheets should be submitted on a weekly basis and approved by the client in time for the payroll cut off, which is 10am Tuesday.

When we run the payroll, the on-line system generates an invoice from your Ltd Co to Practicus, so you do not need to send us an invoice. These are generated and emailed to you on the Wednesday & payment will be 30 days from the date of this invoice.

Therefore, there will be a 5 week period before you receive your initial payment and assuming you enter and have your worksheets approved by Tuesday 10am every week, payment will then be weekly thereafter. All of your Online Invoices will be available to view on the portal along with their payment due dates.

UMBRELLA COMPANY:

The system will generate a worksheet for you to complete each week, you must fill this out and then submit it to the client for approval. The deadline for client approval is 10am Tuesday and we process approved worksheets on a weekly basis. On the Wednesday an invoice is generated by the system and then emailed to your Umbrella Co – our payment terms to the Umbrella Co are 30 days from the date of the invoice. You will need to clarify with your Umbrella Co what their payment terms to you are.

Therefore, there will be a 5 week period before you receive your initial payment and assuming you enter and have your worksheets approved by Tuesday 10am every week, payment will then be weekly thereafter. All of your Online Invoices will be available to view on the portal along with their payment due dates.
