Burden Project Cost less than Raw Cost

We entered a reversing accrual batch as Pre-Approved exp batch and the original transaction was ok, the reversing transaction though has raw cost amount correct as (150,000) but the burden amount is (230..00). In the original entry for the accrual both amounts where 150,000.
Any ideas what may cause this?

Furthermore, it is the exact amount on each line even though different lines have different amounts (150k was just one example) it is a fixed amount

How to derive/generate Revenue only wth Project costing?Burdening possible?

Hello Experts / Dina,
I am doing a implementation to customer where only Project costing is in scope and customer wanted to derive / generate revenue for few of the revenue generated project using oracle project costing. Currently this customer is using legacy external application to enter manual journal for revenue.
So can you please provide me workaround to achieve only revenue generation using oracle project costing?
I have one workaround but wanted to validate from you all experts. Plz help me...
1. Enabling budening on same expenditure item I can generate revenue using burden schedule and setup total burden cost db and cost cr account in auto accounting so that burdent Cost Crd account will be a reveue account and burden Cost dbt account will be UBR a/c. and then transfer the burden cost to GL as revenue vs UBR.
This work around is thorotical and dont know what is implication of burden mulitpliers. If I used this workaorund then revenue (burden cost) amount is depend upon the expenditure orgnization multiplier and not on job based or employee based. How to solve this problem?
I think there is possibility to drive the burden multiplier based on expenditure types..if taken that approch then end up in creating lot of expenditure type for each multiplier.
So please help with workaround or someother method.
Thanks

Hi Dina,
First of all many many thanks for posting your answer on this question.
1. > I tried using total burden schedule approch to generate revenue but I think there is problem to restrict the accounting for the expenditur items which should not be burden ( need not to be generate revenue). As Total burdening approch creates burden accounting as raw cost though burden mulitplier is not specified ( system takes as value 0) :(
2.> Then I tried a approch of using create & distribute burdening method ( burdening on separate expenditure item) - This works fine and generate burden accounting ( revenue a/c -& UBR). And provides a restriction of generating revenue on selected expenditure items based on burden schedule schedule (multiplier as 0 not specified). On Expenditre Inquiry also can reports a revenue after querying on Expenditure Type Class as "Burden Transactions". You can also reverse items and reverse costing / burdening ( reveneu ) with normal standard process.
3.> If I wanted to use borrowed and Lent processing then I guess it will be easy. But only problem is I can't keep Project Org as Resource Org. Then there is pain in defining lot of resource organization and project organization ( I m not sure customer will agree :() . Also after referring the Project API guide I am still confuse about 2 diff extention doing same thing.
a.> Transfer Price Determination Extension b.> Transfer Price Override Extension . Can you please explain what is difference between both of them and wat is purpose for both of them?
Also In case i don't used the extension then I will be left only using Transfer price % ( 100% + ) to derive my revenue price? rght? Also I am not sure how can customer will have restrictions on the expenditure items which should not generate revenue? ( By defining another transfer price schedule on the selected TASKS with rule as transfer price % 0? )
and I hope by using borrowed and lent processing I can do adjustments ( like reversing of revenue ) as standard way?
Please guide.
Thanks a ton !!!
Cheers,
:-)

Message when sales price is less than cost price

Hai Guys,
Is there any standard configuration in SAP which makes the system give a warning when the Sales price is less than the cost. I have seen this feature in some IDES systems, but I am unable to get that feature in my current project. Can somebody help me in thsi regard?
Regards,
Maheshwaran. I

Hi,
Yes you can also achieve this by doing just some modifications in your pricing procedure :
Please maintain these settings in VPRS :
subtotal as B
requirement 4
and alternate calculation type as 5
Then whenever VPRS will be greater than Nett value, system will throw warning message. Please try and revert with feedback.
Thanks,
Raja

AP invoices, assets and Project Costing

Hello:
We have a business environment where some invoices constitute a single asset. As a result we would like to avoid the overhead of creating assets and processing these assets that are comprised of a single invoice through Projects (capital projects screen).
We would like to have these invoices associated with a Project, Task, Expenditure Type, Org but instead route these invoices into mass additions instead of routing them through projects.
I belive that the Concurrent process called "Mass Additions Create Program" automatically routes any invoice that has been associated with a project directly into projects and does not allow the option of having these routed to mass additions.
My question is this. Is there any alternative here? Project Costing is forcing us to route these single invoice assets though Projects. Are there any other options or ideas or do we just have to live with this short-coming?
Many thanks,
Robert

I guess the only shortcoming is if you are trying to run these one line assets into a Capital Project rather than an Indirect or Contract Project. For in the case of the latter, your intended behaviour is certainly acheivable without having to resort to a workaround.
However, if you're trying to send these one line assets from AP into PA to a CAPITAL Project, as well as from AP into FA, your stuck. The system will not allow you to push to FA from AP if the line is also going to a Capital Project and the line is distributed to an Asset Clearing Account "CIP Account".
The manual is a little confusing on this point, but I am certain that for the Mass Additions Create program to pick up a line from AP and move it to FA, the line must have a CIP account designation if it is distributed to a Project. Thus, if the Project is also a Capital Project it can't be done because of the above outlined restiction.
There was a little bolt-on developed a few years back in the TeleCom vertical at Oracle which automated the creation of the Assets from within the Capital Project as telecom companies experienced similar overhead issues with having to "manually" define and move assets out of a Capital Project into FA.
Hope this helps

Opening Balances for Project Costing in R12

Hi All,
What are the Open transactions should be migrated as Opening Balance in Project Costing (R12) for Projects and Tasks. Here at client place cost will come from Inv, PO, AP and OTL to Project costing (R12). Can you please explain in detail (Opening Balances & Historical Cost - How to Migrate)?
Waiting for replies...

Hi
Usually on implementation of Projects, people are migrating total historical costs per project.
Depend on your current system, you may convert the historical data summarized by project, task, expenditure organization and expenditure type. There is an option to summarize costs into the latest period, just before starting the future transactions import into Projects. Otherwise, consider summarizing cost data per period, per quarter or per year.
The summarized data may be loaded as miscellaneous expenditures into Projects.
Be aware that for converted expenditures you should setup a Transaction Source which is costed and accounted.

Settlement of Project Cost and revenue to GL

I am trying to Settle the project Cost and Revenue to GL account. For the same I have defined settlement profile maintaining GL as optional receiver and then I have maintained Source structure for cost and revenue as to separate them at the time of defining settlement rule, defined Allocation structure where in receiver against source, I have assigned GL as by cost element receiver. After that I have maintained settlement rule for WBS element, but when I am running a settlement is done to either of the GL for cost or Revenue which ever is defined first in settlement rule. It is not creating any settlement for second line item of the settlement rule and system is not giving any error message as well.
Where as if I am trying individually only for cost or revenue , settlement is completed with all the values but with any accounting document generated, but if I see the entries to that GL, a settlement entry is created for that transaction.
Can anyone please help in solving this issue ASAP.
Thanks and Regards

Hi,
    If it is posting to the first line means....
Follow the steps below:
First try to create a project and post the actuals and revenues.
Go to cost element report pick up those cost elements both for costs and revenues.
Go to Soruce Structure in the config, define the structure with name for Ex: 'Z1' and define two assignments, one is Costs and other Revenue, by selecting the costs go to Source mention the cost element where the actual costs are posted on (Mention only that cost element no other cost elements), next select the Revenue assignment and click on Source and mention the only cost element where the revenue wsa posted (Mention only that revenue cost element no other cost elements) and save the transaction.
Come back to project builder, select the wbs and click on settlement rule, in the menu goto-->settlement parameters and check whether the source and settlement profiles are correct or not, incase source structure is not available mention the same.
come back to settlement Rule overview and fill the fields as mentioned below:
1st line:   Category: GL
              GL Account: GL Account Number
              Source Structure: COSTS
2nd Line: Category: GL
              GL Account: GL Account Number (Revenue Account)
              Source Structure: REVENUE.
Now Run the Settlement for the specific period costs posted, the costs will be posted seperately to the two different GL Accounts.
I think this will resolve your problem.

Project cost plan Header Data table ( PS module - T.code CJR2)

Hi,
I am working on PS module where we have to build a integration between PS Cost plan (At WBS Element level) to SD Quotation. I have to use transaction CJR2 for this. we will add the custom field 'Indicator' on the initial screen of transaction CJR2 for this. I want to know what is the HEADER DATA table for Project Cost Plan, so i can add this custom field in that table and letter on use in CJR2.
If someone have done any kind of modification for work on CJR2 transaction, please provide me some information on this since i am first time working on PS module. I need some information on modifying the initial screen on transaction CJR2.
Any inputs will be appreciated.
Thanks,

Hi,
you'll find Project cost plan in tables RPSCO / COSP

A Standard RRB report that shows actual project cost line items .... ?

A Standard RRB report that shows actual project cost line items but that also shows amount/qty by rejected, billed, to be billed, postponed?
I'm looking for something that will allow project managers to reconciile with the RRB totals and be able to dril in a see a level detail not available in RRB to decide what should be billed, what should should be deferred (postponed) and what should be rejected out of hand.
Thanks.

Thanks Virendra Pal but the VAx5 reports are not really the answer - maybe a custom report will be required right enough.

Restrict the LONG RAW Column with less than 32760 bytes in the SELECT

When i am trying to access a LONG RAW Dataype wchich has characters greter than 32760 bytes i am getting this error.
Error -6502: ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error
I came to know that PL/SQL will only be able to access the first 32760 bytes of a LONG RAW. If we try to fetch a LONG RAW from the database into PL/SQL variable which exceeds the 32760 byte limit then we encountered the above error.
Can anyone tell to avoid this error can we write a query to restrict the output to get only those records which has LONG RAW length less than 32760 bytes.
Since we canot use utl_raw.length() in the Select Statement, is there any function to restrict the the records for less than 32760 Bytes only for LONG RAW datatype, so that i will not get any records for more than 32760 bytes and we will not get this error.
REquest you to please help.

Hi
we do not have an option of migrating the LONG RAW to BLOB or any kind of ALTER to the table.
We want to restrict the use of Records from the Table which has data for LONG RAW column less than 32760 bytes, so that we will not get the PL/SQL numberic Error
any function for LONG RAW that can be used in SQL like for varchar2 we can use
select length(NAME) < 100 from tb_emp+
i.e it will get records only which has NAME less than 100 characters.

Creating Master Project - Child Projects Hierarchy in Project Costing

Hello,
Is it possible to create a Master Project (for example, for a division) and one or many Child projects for that divisions as the projects get rolled out?
A division is given a budget which can be assigned to the Master Project and as the divisional Projects are rolled out with a specific budgeted $s, the Master Budget would be reduced with a new version, so the total budget amount at Master Project Level remains the same.
Just like each sub-task roll up to a Top task and top-task make up the total Project, is it possible to create hierarchical Master-child project relationship with up roll up capability.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Note: The client @ 11.5.10 does not have License to use Project Contracts, and uses only the Project Costing module.
Regards.

What kind of component to use as CI if I want to add a project costing rec

Seems like the Project_Express and Intfc_Proj_Express components do not allow, by default, for a creation of new records. When I tried to enable the creation by allowing for Adds in the component properties, and then create CIs from these components, it still will not allow me to create a record (the create in the CI tester is disabled). Any ideas on how to create a project costing transaction record via a CI?

Allright I found an answer myself. What we call Cinch-cabel in German is a common phono-cable in English...
so in order to extend the speakercables just use male to female phono-cable!

Allowed GR reversal affecting the project costs

Hi,
We have just performed our month-end settlement but when we are tallying our project costs and project costs clearing accounts, we have noted discrepancies. The discrepancies were from the reversals of GR for projects costs that were already settled. Is this really the standard of the system? To allow reversal of GR even if project costs were already settled to AUC?

Hi,
Suppose take a material A for which in month Jan you created a requirement PR-PO for the same, after that you did GR for the same in same month of Jan. Then you perform period end process for Jan., so your jan month will have actual of that material with respect to that CO object which will have actual posting in GL for that month. Now, in Feb general procees after period end process of jan, you reverse the GR with respect the present period that Feb. and and now you compare the value of settlement and present Account's value which would not match, so it will match once you settle this present updates with respet that material for the same CO object, then it will match with account's values
Best Regards
Vicky
