UI Step

On the invoice, review the payment information, using the Notes section on the bottom to document any notes you may have. Check the Acknowledgement box acknowledging NYSERDA’s right to retroactively adjust the payment if an error is identified.  This is mandatory and you will not be able to submit the invoice without acknowledging.  Once acknowledged, please click the Submit Payment Request button.

UI Step

The invoice will proceed to the NYSERDA Finance team for processing.  You can track invoice approvals on the Payments Reference tab. When NYSERDA receives your payment submission, the Status will show Sent to Finance. Once NYSERDA has approved payment, the status will show as Approved.

Tip

The 30-day prompt payment policy begins when the invoice is sent to Finance. As an example, if an invoice is sent on 4/15, 4/15 would be considered the “basis date” and the due date would be 5/15 or 30 calendar days. If the email is sent after 5PM or on a weekend, then the next business day is considered the basis date.
