Start Project

Enter the first project in the range of regular, overhead, or promotional project numbers whose time is to be included on the Time Analysis report.

If you want to specify only one project, enter that project number in both the Start Project and End Project fields.

You cannot overlap Time Analysis ranges if a Report Column field is specified for the range.

End Project

Enter the last project in the range of regular, overhead, or promotional project numbers whose time is to be included on the Time Analysis report.

If you want to specify only one project, enter that project number in both the Start Project and End Project fields.

You cannot overlap Time Analysis ranges if a Report Column field is specified for the range.

Account

Enter the account number to use to debit all time posted to the specified project (or range of projects) if you want to debit time to an account other than the one set up in Employee Types Configuration.

You can enter an account or click and select an account on the Account Lookup.

If you enter an account in this field, it overrides all accounts set up in Employee Types Configuration when you post time to the associated projects.

If you enter an account in this field, you must use one of the following:

  • An indirect account with all overhead and promotional projects

  • A direct or reimbursable account with all regular projects

Report Column

Enter the report column on the Time Analysis report in which you want to include the amounts posted to this project (or range of projects). For example, you may have amounts for project 0000002.00, Vacation, appear in the Vac column of the Time Analysis report. You define report column headings in Time Analysis Headings Configuration.

Only overhead and promotional projects can be assigned to the report column headings on the Time Analysis report. Any indirect project not assigned to a report column prints in the Other column on the report.

Accrual Code

Identify the benefit accrual code to which this project or range of projects is associated. Time posted to this project or range of projects is considered time taken against the accrual plan.

You set up accrual codes on the Benefit Accrual tab of the Time Analysis and Benefit Accrual form.
