Field or Control |
Description |
---|---|
Time/Labor Actuals |
PAY: Indicates Payroll expenses that are brought into PeopleSoft Project Costing after the close of a payroll period. |
Time/Labor No Pay Actual |
NPY: Indicates hours that are entered into PeopleSoft Time and Labor with a time reporting code of BOH (bill but no pay). When brought into PeopleSoft Project Costing, two rows are created:
The system does not pay that person for those hours, and does bill the time for those hours. |
Contractor Time/Labor |
TLC: Indicates separate cost rows that are created after the close of a payroll period. |
Time/Labor Estimates |
TLA: Indicates estimate rows that are brought into PeopleSoft Project Costing for the open pay period. |
Time/Labor Billing Estimate |
TLB: Indicates TLB rows that are created as part of estimate processing to facilitate billing from estimates. Amounts are subject to change. TLB rows are also created after the close of a payroll period. |
Note: If hours or units are reported in the Quantity field, the system uses the following basic formula to estimate gross: (TL_QUANTITY) x (COMPRATE + FACTOR_RATE_ADJ) x (FACTOR_MULT). No formula is used to estimate gross if a dollar amount is reported.
See PeopleSoft HCM: Time & Labor, "Understanding the Batch Process in Time Administration," Performing Rounding, Task Distribution and Estimated Gross.
