View Project Activity

Use this screen to review project costs and revenue without printing a report.

The amount of information is limited compared to the project reports because of space and speed considerations. If you want additional data on a project, use the reports to print out this information. The initial screens contain summary information created by the Create Project Report Tables screen for the revenue summary data. In the main screen, click to select a specific project or organization with which you want to work. You can view your inquiry using either the Home organization (Owning Org) or the contributing organization (Performing Org). You can conduct either of these inquiries using either target or actual rates. You can perform inquiries on specific project, organization, and account levels without including the lower levels. You can use the View Project Activity by Level screen for inquiries in which you can specify the project, organization, and account levels that include all information at and below that level. The inquiry screens are non-editable.

You must have posted the journals and executed the Compute Burden Costs screen, Compute Revenue screen, Update Project Status Report Tables screen, and Create Project Report Tables screen for the fiscal year, period, and subperiod for which you want to inquire. These are the same steps you take to print reports for the same time period. The only available fiscal year information is that which currently exists in the report tables. If you want to produce an inquiry for a period other than those currently available, follow these steps to create the report table. Keep in mind that some of the steps might have already been run, such as Compute Burden Costs and Compute Revenue screens. If you have already run the Compute Burden Costs and Compute Revenue screens, there is no need to rerun them. Normally, for previous periods, you must create only the report tables in order to inquire against them. The amount of time you keep report tables determines how many subperiods worth of information are available simultaneously. Normally, you run the processes for the latest subperiod to have the most up-to-date information.
