Regular Hours This column displays the number of regular hours.
Total Overtime Hours This column displays the total number of standard and secondary overtime hours.
Total Hours This column displays the total number of hours (regular and overtime).
Regular Amount This column displays the cost amount for regular hours.

Total Overtime Amount

This column displays the cost amount for all overtime hours (standard and secondary overtime hours).

Deltek calculates overtime costs differently for hourly and salaried employees.

  • For hourly employees, Deltek calculates the overtime amount as follows:

    Overtime hours * Hourly labor cost rate * Overtime percentage

  • For salaried employees, Deltek first calculates the employee’s annualized hourly rate, using this equation:

    Annual salary / Estimated annual regular hours

    (The estimated annual regular hours are the hours per week multiplied by 52.)

    Deltek then calculates the overtime amount as follows:

    Overtime hours * Annualized hourly rate * Overtime percentage

Total Amount This column displays the total labor cost amount: Regular Amount + Total Overtime Amount
Overtime Hours This column displays the number of standard overtime hours.
Overtime Amount This column displays the cost amount for the standard overtime hours.

Billing Currency Code This column displays the three-character code for the billing currency.

Charge Type

This column displays one of the following charge types for the project:

  • R:Regular projects are revenue-producing. Costs charged to regular projects include direct labor, direct expense, and reimbursable expense. Deltek retains the detail for a regular project for the life of the project.
  • H:Overhead projects are not revenue-producing. Costs charged to overhead projects include indirect labor and indirect expense. Deltek distributes the total cost of these projects to regular projects during overhead allocation. Typical overhead projects can include General Overhead, Vacation, Sick Leave, Holiday, and Civic Duty. Deltek resets job-to-date costs to zero for overhead projects when you initialize for a new fiscal year.
  • P: Promotional projects track the cost to acquire a job. If you obtain the contract, you can create a new regular project and transfer the detail to it to be billed or tracked. A promotional project is similar to an overhead project. However, Deltek does not zero out job-to-date costs at the start of each fiscal year for promotional projects.
Revenue Type

This column displays the revenue type. The revenue type is a code to identify how Deltek calculates revenue for the task, phase, or project. There are six standard revenue types:

  • B: Job-to-date billing
  • M: (Job-to-date direct labor * Multiplier) + Job-to-date reimbursable expenses @ cost rates
  • N: No revenue generation
  • P: Percent complete + Job-to-date reimbursable expenses @ cost rates
  • R: Job-to-date receipts
  • W: Job-to-date billing + Work-in-progress @ billing rates
Rate This column displays the employee's job cost rate. This is the rate at which Deltek applies the employee’s hours as costs to a project.
Overtime Rate

This column displays the rate used to calculate the standard overtime amount. Deltek calculates the overtime rate as follows:

Employee’s hourly rate * Employee's overtime percentage

Overtime Percentage

This column displays the employee's overtime percentage that Deltek uses to calculate the employee's overtime rate. Deltek calculates the overtime rate as follows:

Special Overtime Amount This column displays the cost amount for secondary overtime hours.
Special Overtime Rate

This column displays the rate used to calculate the secondary overtime amount. Deltek calculates the overtime rate as follows:

Employee’s hourly rate * Employee's secondary overtime percentage

Employee’s hourly rate * Employee's secondary overtime percentage

Fiscal Period This column displays the accounting period in which the transaction was posted.
Posting Sequence

This column displays the posting sequence number for the transaction. Deltek assigns the sequence numbers during the posting process. Deltek assigns 1 to the first group of transactions posted during an accounting period, 2 to the second group, and so on.
