Hello and welcome to Virtual Production Office
I’m Stephen Koncelik and I’m going to be going over some of the Payroll features
in Virtual Production Office
First, go to vpo.entertaimnetpartners.com
Enter your Username and Password
Then select the Payroll tab
Your show will appear on the screen divided into four main areas
The first area on the upper left is where Payroll Reports
such as edits and invoice reports, are posted
Section 2 has useful information and links
Section 3 contains Payroll Details for your project
such as EP contact information and the shows production schedule
On the bottom right Contracts and Plan Docs unique to your project
are posted for easy reference
We will now review the features from these sections in more detail
Any edits which have been posted by your EP Paymaster ready for your review
will have a Status of “Edit Published”
Simply click on the “eye” icon to access the pdf of the edit
This next area is your workspace
From here you can download edits to print or view
Or, you can switch to other invoices to view their edits
Finally, this spaced may be used to send messages, or notes
to your paymaster about discrepancies or errors you have found
Simply click on the “Add Edit Item” button
and type in the item you have a dicrepency with
You and your paymaster will be able to reply to each other’s messages
nd to accept or decline them as well
Once you’ve downloaded and reviewed your edit
go to “Next Steps”
This tab gives a summary of the previous page’s activities
and presents you with two options
Publish a New Edit Report or Process Checks
Select “Publish a New Edit” if there were discrepancies or errors on your edit
This will send an email notification to the paymaster that there are corrections needed
If your edit has no errors and you want it processed as is
then select “Process Payroll Checks and Final Invoice”
This will release the payroll in our internal system
and the checks will be processed in the next regularly scheduled payroll run
In addition to your edit being available through VPO
you may also access your invoice reports 24 hours a day—anywhere, anytime
Invoices which have been processed, and are ready for viewing
will appear in VPO with a status of “Package Available”
In the far right column is the icon for the “Report Package”
which indicates that the reports are available for viewing
Click on either the icon itself, or the Invoice hyperlink
to expand the invoice details exposing the reports available
Clicking on the hyperlink will produce a PDF of each respective report
Once all invoice reports have been attended to, click the “Viewed” box
and the corresponding invoice report icon will now disappear from the master “to do” list
To fully utilize the features of VPO we encourage you to set up your VPO “notifications”
so that you receive an email you when certain things happen
for example when an edit is published, or an invoice is processed
Select the “My Options” tab
Next select the “My Notifications” tab
Here you will be able to set up the email address to use
as well as what you want to be notified about
After confirming the email address is correct, select the “Payroll Tab”
Now you can select which items you wish to be notified about and when
When any of the selected “events” occur
an email will be automatically sent to you notifying you of the event
Now you can select which items you wish to be notified about—and when
either immediately or at a set time
