Select Business Entity & Funding Account

Your next step depends on whether your company configured a custom payments workflow. See Best Practices for Creating a Payments Workflow. For companies operating with multiple business entities, a Business Entity drop-down list appears.

If you only see the #2 Select Funding Account page, your company has implemented a custom payments workflow to streamline the approval process. Click here for next steps.

  1. In the #2 **Select Funding Account page:

    • Business Entity. If applicable, select the appropriate business entity from the drop-down list. This list only appears for companies operating with more than one (1) business entity. See Add Business Entities as a Payor.

    • Funding Account. Select your company's funding account from the drop-down list. If only one funding account is set up for the selected business entity, it’ll be preselected.

    • Disbursement Name. Enter a unique name to help others identify the disbursement. There is a maximum character limit of 50.

    • To save the disbursement as a 'Draft', click Save as Draft. Procore adds a 'Draft' status to the disbursement for easy identification. To add more invoices to the disbursement, see Add Subcontractor Invoices to a 'Draft' Disbursement.

    • If you are ready to pay the invoices in the disbursement, click Start Workflow.

      After clicking Start Workflow, the system checks to determine if the selected invoices are eligible for payment. If invoices are ineligible for payment, an error message appears. Click Show Details to expand the message and review the details. Click Hide Details to hide the error message.
