Use this subtask to map projects and accounts and/or PLCs. If you have specific project account groups or have established your transaction projects so that they relate to ACRNs or CLINs (line items), no account or PLC mapping is necessary unless the same project is mapped to more than one CLIN. For example, if you have the following project data, there is no need to map accounts or PLCs because you have line items associated with the project tasks. You can map the transaction level project.
Project Number |
Project Function |
Line Item (CLIN) |
C001 |
Top Level Rollup |
|
C001.01 |
Revenue and Billing Level |
|
C001.01.01 |
Task 1 Engineering Labor |
0001AA |
C001.01.02 |
Task 2 Support Labor |
0002AB |
C001.01.03 |
Task 3 Other Direct Costs |
0001AA |
If the line items cannot easily be associated with project numbers, you can map accounts or Project Labor Categories (PLCs) to each line using the‘Accounts or PLC Mapping subtasks. You can enter data in only one subtask for a given project/CLIN. The PLC Mapping subtask is available only for projects using an LLR formula.
Use the Accounts subtask to specify summary level account ranges for a project/line item (CLIN). If no accounts or PLCs are mapped to a project/line item (CLIN), all PLCs and accounts charged to the project are mapped to the CLIN line.
If the billing formula is a LLR type formula, use the PLC Mapping subtask to map Project Labor Categories (PLCs) to a project/line item (CLIN). You can map accounts or PLCs to the same project/CLIN line, but not both. If no accounts or PLCs are mapped to a project/line item (CLIN), all PLCs and accounts charged to the project are mapped to the CLIN line.
To make the mapping task easier, you can map projects at and below the entered level, but you cannot enter a project that is part of a project "branch" already entered. If this occurs, an error message displays.
Given the project structure shown in the preceding table, you would map as follows:
Project |
CLIN |
C001.01.01 |
0001AA |
C001.01.02 |
0001AB |
C001.01.03 |
0001AA |
Since there are several CLINs below the billing level, you cannot map the billing level project.
Note: Any billed amounts that are not mapped are not included in the WAWF file. |
Enter, or use Lookup to select, the beginning level project number. The project number acts as a wildcard, and you cannot stack projects within the branch above or below that level.
Enter the CLIN associated with the project number.
Select this check box to include the schedule bill amount with the project/CLIN. You must select this check box for one line only.
Highlight a line in the table window and select this link to open the Accounts subtask.
Highlight a line in the table window and select this link to open the PLC Mapping subtask. This subtask is not available unless the project is using an LLR billing formula.
Note: You can enter data for a given project/CLIN in only one subtask. If you manually upload data into both subtasks for a project/CLIN, the data in the PLC Mapping subtask is used and the data in the Accounts subtask is ignored. |
