Hi All,

In my case, employees report time against the project activities through Time Registration window. Once time registration is authorized, finance users generated T vouchers against the time registrations through the process called "Transfer Project Cost Accounting Transactions”. It will create employee project cost accounts for the entered time. 

If an employee applied for an absence/leave, employee will not add working time for that day in Time Registration. And project cost accounting records will not create for the absence days. My requirement is to create project accounting for the absence date as well. Any functionality available in standard IFS ?

 

Regards,

MalinG.

For indirect labor like meetings, maintenance, sick, leave, PTO, etc, we have made separate projects (not customer projects, but full engineering projects) with different sub-projects by year and activities by bucket to separate the items.

Then we have the engineers always account for all of their time whether it is to a project for customer or internal.  In this way the full labor recovery can be accounted for by department and it is easier to tell when an engineer hasn’t entered their full time for the week.

There is no standard functionality otherwise to handle, just a bit of being clever and connecting the project to the accounting in a way that allows the non-direct labor time to be accumulated.
