Use this screen to initialize prior year T&M Revenue information. The system uses this information to enforce hours-based ceilings and to calculate the hours in excess of ceiling for projects with loaded labor rate revenue formulas (T&Ms). Enter hours by labor category, or, optionally, by employee/vendor. You do not need to initialize this screen if you do not have hours ceilings on your loaded labor rate (T&M) projects. All inception-to-date revenue, cost, and hours information for project reports will come from the Prior Year Cost and Revenue screen (Projects » Project Setup » Project History) and the Maintain Labor Summary screen (Projects » Project Setup » Project History).
This screen updates the Prior Year Project Labor History table by fiscal year. This table is also updated as part of the fiscal year close program. Initialize this screen before computing T&M revenue on projects that contain a loaded labor rate revenue formula in the Basic Revenue Info screen (Projects » Project Setup » Revenue Setup).
Select the fiscal year you are updating. The fiscal year must be set up as a valid fiscal year.
Select the project to update. For hours to be recognized in the revenue calculation, this project level must be the same as, or lower than, the level at which the revenue formula is set up in the Basic Revenue Info screen (Projects » Project Setup » Revenue Setup). For example, assume a three-level project. Revenue is recognized at the second level, costs are charged at level three. You must enter hours at the second or third level for them to be recognized in the calculation of revenue and ceilings. Hours entered at level one are ignored. The field to the right of the project displays the project name.
Enter, or use to select, the account to which you will charge the hours. This account must be a detail account, and it must be set up as a Project Required account in the Maintain Accounts screen (Accounting » General Ledger » Accounts).
The account name is displayed from the Account table.
Enter, or use to select, the organization to which you will charge the hours.
Enter the PLC hours that should be charged. This PLC must be a valid labor category.
Enter the GLC hours that should be charged. Records can contain both a PLC and GLC. Billing rates are determined by PLC, however.
Enter the actual amount paid.
Enter the actual hours worked.
Enter the allowable hours. Allowable hours cannot exceed actual hours worked. Allowable hours are used in the calculation of over ceiling amounts.
Enter the applicable billing rate for the hours worked.
Enter the billing rate before discount. This is for informational purposes only. If you are not using billing discounts, this field is hidden. This field is updated by the Update Prior Year History screen (Projects » Project Setup » Project History).
