Code the Resources for IPMR Format 2 Reports

To break out materials, major subcontractors, and major vendors on the IPMR Format 2 report, you can select a code on the resource file and use it for coding IPMR Format 2 Summary on the resource assignments.

While this code may be used for other reporting, this will be used for the purpose of breaking out material, major vendors, and subcontractors once identified. All resources that will be rolled-up and broken out on the IPMR Format 2 should be coded.

To designate which code file on the resource file should be used when summarizing data on the IPMR Format 2 report, use the Files tab of the Project Properties dialog box.

When you add the IPMR Format 2 Summary code on the resource file, it is important to consider the following information:

  • The code file must contain the values used to display materials, major vendors, and major subcontractors on the IPMR Format 2.
  • Add the new code file to any of the nine code fields on the resource file.
  • Select Code (optional) or Code (required) on the Code Fields tab of the Resource File Properties dialog box. You must set the Code Field Type to any of these two options so that the code files assigned to the resource on the project will appear in the IPMR Format 2 Summary list on the Files tab of the Project Properties dialog box.
  • The IPMR Format 2 Summary code can be selected for each project, from one of the nine code fields on the resource file. The code is selected using the IPMR Format 2 Summary option on the Files tab of the Project Properties dialog box.
  • All sub-projects within a master project must use the same code field position in order to report the IPMR Format 2 Summary correctly at the master project level.
  • Code the resources using codes from the Code File Lookup dialog box.
  • Elements should be coded to match the resources with calculations which will be directly assigned to projects. Coding of parent elements is not supported.
  • Code all materials, major subcontractor, and major vendor elements whose costs should be broken out at the bottom of the IPMR Format 2 report.
  • Only code resources whose costs should be broken out at the bottom of the IPMR Format 2 report.
