Manager Bill is a payment method which replaces the traditional Bill Me payment type within the Payment Method section under the Order section within the New Order screen. If your organization would like to have Appraisal Firewall remit payment for all your Bill Me placed orders, you will need to contact your Appraisal Firewall account representative to obtain an ACH form that you will need to sign and return. Additionally, you will need to work with the Appraisal Firewall accounting department on the Manager Bill process. For further information about the Manager Bill process please refer HERE. 

From the Order section on the New Order screen, select Bill Me under the Payment Method section. Once the Manager Bill process has been successfully set up, this configuration of Bill Me is actually a Manager Bill order. 

On the order acceptance screen, the appraiser will have access to the Payment Terms, which will display that Appraisal Firewall is responsible for paying the appraiser. This is because Appraisal Firewall as the Manager receives the bill from the appraiser and is therefore processing the payment. 

Another location the payment is disclosed for all parties is the Print view from the Property Information (house icon) tab. 

Located under the Payment Details heading, the information will display that Appraisal Firewall pays the Appraiser directly. Additional information shown is how much the appraiser is charging for the work completed and if any service fees are assessed by the appraiser. Since Appraisal Firewall is the party responsible for remitting payment, any service fees the appraiser is responsible for paying will automatically be deducted. In the example below, the appraiser would receive $0.99. 

Once the order is completed, Appraisal Firewall will remit payment to the appraiser. Since Appraisal Firewall is the party responsible for remitting payment, any service fees the appraiser is responsible for paying will automatically be deducted. Payment cycles by Appraisal Firewall occur twice a month. 

• Orders completed between the 1^st and 15^th of the month will have payment remitted on or around the 20^th of the month.
• Order completed between the 16^th and End of the month will have payment remitted on or around the 5^th of the following month.
