Percent Completes for Individual Labor Codes and Expense Accounts

You can enter percent completes at the individual labor code and expense account level. Use this method when labor codes or expense accounts have different percentages of completion.

Enter individual percent completes in the % Complete field on the following Project Budget Worksheet tabs, as needed: Labor Costs, Expense Costs, Labor Billing, Expense Billing.

Example

For example, if you enter individual labor and expense percent completes for each of your labor codes and account numbers, Deltek calculates the project's overall percent complete as follows.

This example assumes that you have entered overall, labor, and expense percent complete information on the Project Budget Worksheet.

Labor Budget

Labor Code Labor Budget Percent Complete Earned Labor Budgeted Overhead Percentage Earned Overhead
A0000 $2,500 x 20% = $500 x 210% $1,050
A1000 $4,000 x 30% = $1,200 x 210% $2,520
$6,500 $1,700 $3,570

Expense Budget

Account Number Expense Budget Percent Complete Earned Expenses
511.00 $1,000 x 45% = $ 450
512.00 $2,000 x 40% = $ 800
$3,000 $1,250

$6,520/$23,150 =

28.16%

* The Total Overhead Budget is determined by multiplying the Total Labor Budget ($6,500) by the Budgeted Overhead Rate (210%). The Total Overhead Budget in the above example is equal to $13,650.

** The Total Project Budget is the sum of the budgeted amounts in the Labor, Overhead, Direct Consult, Other Direct Exp, Reimb Consult, and Other Reimb fields.

Overhead Percentage Used

Deltek uses the overhead percentage specified for the project record in the Projects hub.

If no percentage is entered in the Projects hub, Deltek uses the overhead rate specified for the project’s organization.

If Deltek does not find a percentage for either of these options, it uses the enterprise-wide rate specified in Settings > General > General System.
