3/4/2010 Construction Application for Payment Solution Update Available

Print these instructions, by clicking on the "printer" icon above for future reference.

Based on the requests of Construction Application for Payment Solution (AIA Billing for QuickBooks) users we have added the ability to generate the following plain paper versions of the:

  • AIA G706 - Contractor's Affidavit of Payment of Debts and Claims
  • AIA G706A - Contractor's Affidavit of Release of Liens
  • AIA G707 - Consent of Surety to Final Payment
  • AIA G707A - Consent of Surety to Reduction in or Partial Release of Retainage

You can now print the plain paper versions in addition to printing on AIA Original versions of these same forms.

View a .pdf which contains all four plain paper forms mentioned above, by clicking here.  These samples will also indicate where the required information is being pulled from in both QuickBooks and CAPS.

Existing customers, who have an active Annual Maintenance Contract for Construction Application for Payment Solution (CAPS) with Sunburst Software Solutions, Inc., will be contacted notifying them that they can download the necessary update in order to print these forms.

To obtain the update, please follow the instructions below:

  • Close QuickBooks. Start Construction Application for Payment Solution (CAPS).
  • Back Up your CAPS data (Backup & Restore menu -> Enhanced Backup CAPS data -> if there is no information in the top white box, click the big ? in the lower right corner, and follow the instructions found in the program help.)  You should be backing up your CAPS data.
  • From the Help menu -> choose Check for Updates - Windows Vista & 7 Users will be prompted to enter the UAC (User Account Control) password.
  • From the Select An Update drop-down menu -> choose Version 5.0.183 (this is a TESTED Beta version).  The version number can/will change at a later date, just download the next higher version.
  • Click the Download and Install button twice - BE PATIENT while the program downloads and installs the update.
  • Click the Close button when the update has finished installing.
  • New customers and trial users will automatically receive this updated report when they purchase the CPS program, beginning in mid-March.

This update MUST be installed on each computer that Construction Application for Payment Solution is installed on!

  • This update is NOT compatible with Office 2010 Beta - however, you should not be using a beta version such as this on a computer that you use daily.  Only final release versions of Microsoft Windows or Office should be used on a computer that you rely on to run your business!
