1. Read the workflow and source
Open the complete free skill and authored Markdown download, its inputs and review gates. Read ChatGPT project documentation for current file, plan and privacy limits. Account access is not tested here.
2. Start with approved reference files
Create a separate conversation or project for this one job. Upload the public Markdown as reference if your account supports files. This is not a plugin installation. Do not mix clients or place credentials and private records into a reusable setup instruction.
3. Run the fictional acceptance test
Fictional estimate totals 40,000 with progress invoices of 12,000, 10,000 and 9,000: billed 31,000, which is 77.5%, leaving a remaining balance of 9,000; any new invoice above that over-bills the estimate.
4. Use a narrow request
Use the attached Estimate To Invoice Progress Billing Map and supplied fictional inputs only. Return the output contract, source IDs, original values and unknowns. No retrieval, sign-in, send, share, account change, payment or real decision.
5. Review before real data
Check each source row, unchanged original value, missing fact and arithmetic. A successful fictional result is a readiness check, not proof of real-account compatibility. Only then use authorized minimum-necessary real exports, confirm retention/access and ask the responsible owner to review the result.
Where this guide stops
No sending, sharing, ledger/CRM changes, account sign-in or spending is authorized by this guide. A separate request and the required approval govern real actions. Keep an evidence copy of the input version and reviewed output.
