Invoicing-intensive sector
One rejected progress claim, and a month of cash flow slips
Remediation of construction e-invoices: VAT on subcontracting, progress claims, retention and price revision.
What breaks in this sector
- Your subcontracting invoices under the reverse charge are rejected for want of a consistent mention and VAT category.
- Progress claims are cumulative by nature and travel badly in a format designed for one-off invoices.
- Retention and repayable advances are represented differently from one client to the next.
- Site-cost shares and price revisions arrive as free-text lines, which the recipient’s automated validation refuses.
