The Payment Overview page is your centralized hub for managing all aspects of a payment in Mastt. From here, you can review payment amounts, verify compliance with AI, manage supporting documents, and track payment history—all in one place.

Accessing Payment Overview

If your register is grouped by Contract, Month Paid, Month, Status, or Reimbursable Claim, click the Expander Arrow next to a group to reveal its payments first.
Understanding Payment Overview Tabs
Payment Overview organises payment information across four tabs. Each tab focuses on a specific aspect of payment management.
Amounts Tab
The Amounts tab is the default view when you open Payment Overview. It displays a detailed breakdown of contract and variation values included in the payment application.
Click the Contract Name below the progress claim title to navigate directly to the Contract Overview page
Review the Contract and Variations sections, which display contract line items, payment information, and any approved variations included in the payment application
Use the Variation Display dropdown to control how variations appear:
- Group at Bottom — Displays all variations together at the end of the table
- Show Inline — Displays variations beneath their related line items
Additional feature on this tab:
- Toggle Submitted Amounts to compare contractor-submitted amounts with approved amounts
- Click Export to download the table data — choose Current View to export the table as displayed, or All Data to export the complete dataset
AI Reviews Tab
The AI Reviews tab helps verify payment applications against uploaded contract documents using Mastt AI.
From this tab, you can view:
- Compliance checklist items
- The review status for each check
- AI reasoning for each compliance item
- Contract references that support the AI's findings
For more details on AI compliance, see How to Use AI Compliance for Contracts and Payments.
Attachments Tab
The Attachments tab is used to store and manage all documents related to the payment application, including supporting payment files.
- Click + Add File or drag and drop files directly onto the page to upload documents
- Use the Search bar to find specific files, or click Filter to narrow results
