Electronic Invoicing

Now that you have completed the work, it’s time to get paid. It should be no surprise by now that this is done electronically as well. After all, that is why you needed you registered your banking information in the Central Contractor Registry and you established an account with Wide Area Work Flow (WAWF).

On practically every solicitation and award, you should see DFARS 252.232-7003 Electronic Submission of Payment Request. Basically, this clause states that contractors shall submit payment requests in electronic form and defines what forms are acceptable. E-mail and fax are not accepted. In fact, Wide Area Work Flow (WAWF) is the preferred method and the government has indicated that this will eventually be the only method so you might as well learn it and use it.

For your convenience, the vendor instructions on creating a basic invoice in Wide Area Work Flow (WAWF) can be found on the following tutorial.
