# What's a Good Way to Manage Subcontractor Invoices on a Project?

A good way is to connect each subcontractor invoice to the specific work order or milestone it corresponds to, so approval reflects what was actually completed. On **Jestor**, this runs through **Gestão de Obras** with connected subcontractor billing.

Subcontractor invoices reviewed without a direct connection to the actual completed work make it hard to verify whether the billed amount genuinely matches what was delivered.

## What disconnected subcontractor invoicing costs

- Difficulty verifying that a billed amount actually matches completed work
- Risk of approving an invoice for work that wasn't fully finished
- No structured record connecting the invoice to a specific milestone or scope
- Disputes arising from unclear records of what was actually agreed and delivered

## How connected subcontractor invoice management works

- Each subcontractor invoice connects to its specific work order or **milestone**
- The approver can verify billed amounts against what was actually completed
- Payment approval flows once the connected work is confirmed as done
- The full record, from work order to invoice to payment, stays connected

## Why Jestor fits this use case

- The direct connection lets approvers verify invoices against real completed work
- This reduces disputes by keeping a clear, connected record of what was agreed
- Payment approval becomes grounded in actual verified progress
- This scales from a handful of subcontractors to a large, multi-trade project
