Costpoint Help

Compute Commitments

Use the Compute Commitments screen to calculate advance, expense authorization, and expense report commitments in preparation for exporting those amounts to Costpoint, where an accrual journal entry is created.

After commitments are computed, you can immediately export them to Costpoint, or you can view them using the Commitment Inquiry/Report.

Note: If you do not use Costpoint, you can still compute commitments, but you cannot automatically export the file.

You can calculate expense commitments for the following:

  • Advances
  • Expenses that have been recorded but not processed
  • Expense Authorization amounts less unprocessed expenses
  • Unprocessed Expense Report amounts
