Payments

The following provides guidance for publishers on how to monitor payment status in EMAT and troubleshoot common questions regarding payments.  

  • Each payment includes a status that indicates its progress:  

    • Ready to Process: Payment is queued for processing by 7m视频 (typically within one week).  
    • Processed: Payment has been processed by 7m视频 but has not yet been issued.  
    • Paid: Payment has been issued and delivered to the publisher.  

    Payments over $5,000 are processed through the Texas Comptroller and may take up to 30 days from the invoice date to be issued.  

    Payments under $5,000 are typically processed within 10 business days.  

  • The Vendor Payment Report allows you to search for and review payment activity. The Vendor ID is automatically populated. Use filters such as:  

    • PO ID 
    • Payment date range 
    • Status 

    Please note that searching for a specific payment by the PO ID is the most effective way to check the status. 

  • Use the following steps to access the Vendor Payment Report in EMAT: 

    1. Log in to EMAT. 
    2. From the Vendor Start Page, select Reports. 
    3. Select Payment Report. 
    4. Apply filters as needed and select Show. 

    The Vendor Payment Report is also publicly available and does not require EMAT access (report can be found at the bottom of the 7m视频 Publishers web page). 

    • Select Run an EMAT Vendor Payment Report. 

  • Payments are processed in batches, and each batch may include multiple purchase orders (POs). 

    • Select a Batch ID to view all associated payments. 
    • After opening a batch, display all available columns to review:  
    • PO numbers 
    • Invoice details 
    • Payment amounts 

    Payment details are itemized by ISBN for each completed shipment. 

  • To locate recent payments: 

    1. Use the Payment Date Range filter. 
    2. Select a Status (or choose All). 
    3. Select Show to refresh results. 

  • A PO with a status of Dispatched may indicate that the quantity shipped is less than the quantity ordered. 

    1. Open the PO in EMAT. 
    2. Update the Quantity Shipped field to reflect the full shipment. 

    Once all items are marked complete, the remaining payment will be processed.
