How do we create a "Milestone" in Projects and generate billing

Dear Experts
Please help me on a following scenario:
Requirement is to have a project with multiple milestones as tasks. And then on completion of milestone, we expect the system to trigger a billing event to generate project customer invoice.
Please advise me how can we handle this requirement in PA, what distribution rule needs to be used, what customizations are required, how does the system will understand the completion of a milestone .
Please note that we are using only Project Costing and Billing modules. Project Management or Project Contracts is not used by us.
Thanking you in advance and looking forward for your help.

Hi
You could use a billing extension to create a billing event. However, the user need somehow to enter the date of the Milestone completion.
Assuming you have only one milestone per task you may use the following method. Consider the use the form titled Percent Complete. On that form user may enter a line per task, and upon completion of the task, user need to enter Percent Complete as 100%, and the As of Date value. Then user need to run the GDI process that will call the billing extension.
The billing extension will look at that table and create an automatic event for each task (milestone) that got 100%. Note that you will need to design the logic of the billing extension so it will know which task was already billed in prior GDI runs, and will not create further events for that task.
About Project Management -
You can create deliverables for each task when creating the workplan. A deliverable could be your contractual milestone. The deliverables type should be such that allow the Billing action. When milestone is completed, user need to enter the date of completion, and select the action of - Create Deliverable-based-Event.
Then go and run the GDI process. In that case you will not need to develop a billing extension. However, if you only need a solution for billing, this PJT module is not the recomended solution.

  • How do I create an Lightroom HTML Gallery and preserve the - in the file name?

    How do I create an Lightroom HTML Gallery and preserve the - in the file name?
    The hyphen (-) is more search engine friendly, so I label all my photos using hyphens (-) to separate the keywords in the file name
    Here's a sample file name - it's for the "Guess Where Berkeley" flickr site
    guess-where-berkeley-serkes-xx-s-curve.jpg
    I created a Lightroom HTML Gallery and posted it to the following link.
    http://www.berkeleyhomes.com/tests/lightroom/lightroom-test-1/
    Though it looksl like the HML gallery shows the original file name in the web page, it looks like Adobe Lightroom modified each photo's file name by changing the - (hyphen) to an underscore (_)
    Originally
    guess-where-berkeley-serkes-xx-s-curve.jpg
    After Adobe created the HTML photo gallery the name became
    guess_where_berkeley_serkes_xx_s_curve.jpg
    Is there any way to preserve the – rather than the _ character
    Thank you!

    InDesign's interactive PDF support is a small subset of what you can do in Acrobat Profesional.
    I think you probably want to create a button (or change an existing button) in Acrobat Pro that causes Acrobat to close the document -- that should be analagous to "exitting the CD." I assume your autorun file is opening the PDF in Adobe Reader? You have not included it and are not specific, so it is tough to say.
    I believe in Acrobat Javascript you can close the document with this.closeDoc(). You'll probaly need to ask on the Acrobat forums (possiby Acrobat Scripting) for more detail.

  • How we will create relationship with org unit and task catalog

    HI Experts
    How we can create relationship between Org unit and Task Catalog in Organisation management once we grouped all the tasks in one group.
    For Example we have one org unit under that we have 3 depts those will consider as org units only.under 3 depts we have professor,Lecturer,Reader as jobs and positions also.If we create Professor tasks in task catalog which all the tasks will be assigned to positions as well.
    If it is Org unit and Task catalog how we can create relationship.
    Thanks

  • How can you create a playlist with music and music video and play those from same playlist through Apple TV?

    How can you create a playlist on Ipod touch with music and music video,  and play those from same playlist through Apple TV?  I can download, create a playlist with both music and music video, stream that through the Apple TV with no problem.  The sound and the information show up on the TV, but when it gets to a music video, it only shows the information and "artwork".
    I also have a video playlist - videos play fine through the Apple TV, but will not shuffle through all videos - continues to repeat the same one.  I have most definitely selected shuffle in both locations - from the playlist and on the ipod video screen while video is playing.

    I finally got it... had to sync the photos with the music in iMovie, arrange the voiceover in GarageBand then export to iTunes, and then I was able to put it all together in iMovie and burn in iDVD... had a few glitches along the way but finally finished : )

  • How do I create files in Captivate 6 and save them in a lower version?

    I have Captive 6 at home and at work we are using 5.5.with no plans to upgrade.  How do I create or edit in Captivate 6 and still save files so my coleagues can contribute using the software we are given at work?

    Only between 6 and 7 this is possible, not with previous versions. And even between 6 and 7 you can have weird things happening. It has nothing to do with being a normal file or a template, I don't know why you tell that?
    OP was talking about 5.5 and 6, and there this is NOT possible at all.

  • How to delete extension, project and generated tasks in EEW

    Hi all,
    I have created a project in EEW. Then I have generated an extension for this project, and errors occured during generation. When i have tried to delete the EEW extension and project, i get the Error Message no. OXT_MISC015. I have tried to delete the customizing and workbench requests, but it wasnt much of help.
    Points will be rewarded.

    Abhishek 
    I tried to delete the extension, in the Log tab, I only got one error which is:
    Table CI_EEW_ORDERADM_H can't be created with package $TMP
    Seems like the deletion process tried to change the structure CI_EEW_ORDERADM_H.
    I checked this structure, there is already a field added by other developer, but this structure is apparently in another z-package.
    So what I should do now?
    Thanks

    You can launch a file selection dialog with FileReference. You can save settings using a SharedObject (like a cookie).

    If this is a Flex app, you will only be able to select a file from the local machine and upload to server, you won't be able to open the file in the Flex app, due to security sandbox.
    If this is an AIR app you will not have this restriction.

  • How do I create a new user account and migrate my data to it?

    I have problem with Adobe Bridge crashing when I exit Camera Raw.  I was advised by my local apple service store to create a new user account and test Bridge using the new account.  It works fine.  So what do I do now?  I don't know what in my account is causing the conflict but assume that the solution might be e newly setup user. 

    Checking the behaviour in another user account is a TEST, not a solution! You don't need to move everything over. Otherwise, every time you get a user account problem, you'll keep moving to a new user account again and again.
    If the problem does not occur in a new user account, then the cause is something IN your user account. This is usually a Preference file. Adobe Bridge seems to crash a lot, and it can usually be fixed by deleting the Bridge folder in <user>/Library/Application Support/Adobe/
    You can also try deleting the Bridge preference file, which will be in <user>/Library/Preferences, and called com.adobe.bridge5.plist (or similar).
    If that doesn't work, you can test removing a whole bunch of the various Adobe files in those folders. You can always put them back if they don't change anything. And you've got a backup, haven't you? ;-)
