Typographic Conventions in Oracle Application Navigation Paths

This course uses simplified navigation paths, such as the following example, to direct you
through Oracle Applications.
(N) Invoice > Entry > Invoice Batches Summary (M) Query > Find (B) Approve
This simplified path translates to the following:
1. (N) From the Navigator window, select Invoice then Entry then Invoice Batches
Summary.
2. (M) From the menu, select Query then Find.
3. (B) Click the Approve button.
Notations:
(N) = Navigator
(M) = Menu
(T) = Tab
(B) = Button
(I) = Icon
(H) = Hyperlink
(ST) = Sub Tab

Typographical Conventions in Oracle Application Help System Paths

This course uses a “navigation path” convention to represent actions you perform to find
pertinent information in the Oracle Applications Help System.
The following help navigation path, for example—
(Help) General Ledger > Journals > Enter Journals
—represents the following sequence of actions:

1. In the navigation frame of the help system window, expand the General Ledger entry.
2. Under the General Ledger entry, expand Journals.
3. Under Journals, select Enter Journals.
4. Review the Enter Journals topic that appears in the document frame of the help system
window.

Chapter 1 - Page 70

Practice - Define Non-Labor Resources

Overview
In this practice, you will define a non-labor resource. In a previous practice titled "Define an
Expenditure Type," you defined an expenditure type named XXMotor Pool Trucks. You must
now define non-labor resources that represent the two types of delivery trucks that the motor
pool maintains for other departments to use. For each non-labor resource, you will specify the

owning organization. You will enter a cost rate override for one of the non-labor resources.
Assumptions
Tasks
Enter a Non-Labor Resource for Small Trucks
Define a non-labor resource named XXSmall Truck to select when a department is charged for
use of a small truck from the motor pool. Associate it with the XXMotor Pool Trucks expenditure
type that you defined in a previous practice. Assign the non-labor resource to the Shared Services
organization (motor pool is part of this organization).
Small trucks cost less to operate and maintain, so the motor pool does not charge other
organizations as much to use them. For the organization Vision Services, enter a cost rate
override of $100 USD a day for the remainder of this year and $125 USD a day for next year.
Enter a Non-Labor Resource for Large Trucks
Define a non-labor resource named XXLarge Truck to select e when a department is charged for
use of a large truck from the motor pool. Associate it with the XXMotor Pool Trucks expenditure
type that you defined in a previous practice. Assign the non-labor resource to the Shared
Services organization (motor pool is part of this organization).
Do not enter a cost rate override. Instead, Oracle Project Costing uses the cost rate of $250 USD
a day that you defined for the expenditure type.

to apply different burden costs to labor and to expense report raw costs.
Assumptions

Tasks
Define the Burden Structure Header Information
Your company applies fringe, overhead, and general and administrative burden to various types
of costs. The finance department always uses an additive approach to calculate the burden.
Define the header information for a new additive burden structure and name it XXLabor and
Expenses. Note that your company does not want users to use this structure for overrides.
Enter the Labor Cost Base
The finance department wants to apply fringe to labor costs to account for benefits and overhead
to account for human capital management administrative support. Define a labor cost base that
applies both types of burden costs to the following expenditure types:
− Administrative
− Clerical
− Design
− Professional

Practice - Define a Burden Schedule

Overview
In this practice, you will define a provisional burden schedule and specify multipliers for each
type of burden cost. You will assign the XXLabor and Expenses burden structure that you created
in the previous practice to the schedule.
Assumptions

Tasks
Define the Burden Schedule Header Information
You need to define a burden schedule to specify the burden multipliers for the cost codes on your
XXLabor and Expenses burden structure. The finance department does not have the final
multipliers at this time, so you must create a provisional burden schedule that will enable you to
specify the actual multipliers when they are available.
Define the header information for the provisional burden schedule and name it XXInternal
Costing. Use the organization hierarchy information as specified in the following table:
Field Value
Hierarchy Global
Version 1
Start Org Vision Corporation
Enter the Version Information
Create the initial version of the schedule. Name the first version and identify the first day of next
month as the start date. You do not have an end date for this version at this time.
Enter the Multipliers and Compile the Version
Enter the multipliers for each burden cost code. First enter the multipliers for Vision
Corporation, the start organization that you specified for the hierarchy. Costs for operating your
Services-East organization are higher than in other organizations, so the finance department has
provided you with a separate set of provisional multipliers for Services-East. Enter the
multipliers as specified in the following table:

Performing Cost Adjustments


Practice - Perform a Split and a Transfer

Overview
In this practice, you will split an expenditure item on your project into two expenditure items and
transfer one of the new expenditure items to a different task. You will also run the cost
distribution program for your project to distribute the adjustment. Finally, you will run an
adjustment activity report for your project.

Assumptions
Tasks
Perform a Split and a Transfer
Amy Marlin has informed you that she incorrectly charged 10 hours of clerical work for the
week to task 1.1. Amy should have charged 6 hours of the clerical work to task 2.1 and 4 hours
to task 1.1. Adjust the expenditure items on your XX Capital Services project accordingly.
First, change the comment for the expenditure item to indicate that the Amy's supervisor, Donald
Gray, has approved the transfer. Next, split the expenditure item for 10 hours of Amy's clerical
work on task 1.1 into expenditure items of 6 and 4 hours. When you split the expenditure items,
both should remain capitalizable. Finally, transfer 6 hours to task 2.1.
Cost Distribute the Adjusted Expenditure Items
Submit the concurrent program PRC: Distribute Labor Costs for your project to distribute the
adjusted expenditure items. Review the output report.

Summary of the six expenditure items:
First, you interfaced supplier costs to Oracle Project Costing, which created the new
supplier cost expenditure item for task 1.2.
Second, you transferred the cost to task 3.0. The transfer created a new expenditure item
for task 3.0 and a reversal for the original expenditure item for task 1.2.
Third, you cancelled the invoice in Oracle Payables and interfaced supplier costs to
Oracle Project Costing. The program PRC: Interface Supplier Costs created an
expenditure item to reverse the transferred expenditure item on task 3.0. Oracle
Payables did not know about the adjustment activity in Oracle Project Costing, so the
cancellation created an expenditure item to reverse the original expenditure item for
task 1.2. Because the transfer previously reversed the original expenditure item in
Oracle Project Costing, the interface program created an expenditure item to reverse the
cancellation reversal (appears as a positive expenditure item for task 1.2). The net
outcome is that the total cost is now zero.

Integration with Oracle Time & Labor


Guided Demonstration - Set Timecard Approval Style

The approval process alerts the appropriate person when timecards are ready for review and
approval. In Oracle Time & Labor, the approval style defines who approves timecards. The
approval style also defines what data needs to be approved for each application, and which data
changes require resubmission. For more information about defining approval styles, see the
Oracle Time & Labor Implementation and User Guide.
In this guided demonstration, the instructor will set the Proj Override timecard approval style to

Project Manager. As a result, when you submit a timecard for Amy Marlin in the next practice,

Allocations and AutoAllocations


Practice - Define an Allocation Rule

Overview
In this practice, you will define an allocation rule to allocate a fixed amount of shared cost to
tasks in your XX Capital Services project.
Assumptions

Tasks
Define the General Allocation Rule Information
The finance department has asked you to define an allocation rule to allocate a fixed amount of
shared costs each month to the tasks in your XX Capital Services project. The costs must be
allocated in full once each GL period. The rule should prorate the costs based on the total
burdened cost for each chargeable task.
Name your rule XXService Allocation. Enter the allocation rule information as specified in the
following table:
Field Value
Name XXService Allocation
Basis Method Prorate
Allocation Method Full
Allocation Period Type GL
Targets Selection Operating Unit
Expnd Org Services-East
Expnd Type Class Miscellaneous Transaction
Expnd Type Support Svcs Allocation
Auto Release No
Allow Duplicate Targets No

Define the Source
The finance department has calculated that they need to allocate a fixed shared cost amount of
100,000.00 USD each month. Use this information to define the source for the allocation rule.
Define the Targets
Allocate the costs to your XX Capital Services project. Your project manager has obtained an
exception that exempts task 3.0 of your XX Capital Services project from the allocation. Define
the targets for the allocation rule accordingly.

Define the Offset
The finance department wants you to create a transaction on task 8.0 of the Service Center
project to offset the allocation transactions. Use the same expenditure organization, expenditure
type class, and expenditure type for the offset transaction that you use for the allocation
transactions.
Define the Basis Information
The amount that the rule allocates to each chargeable task is based on the actual total burdened
cost for the fiscal year to date. Define the basis method and specify a relative period of 0 (current
period) to determine the actual total burdened cost for each task.

Update Project Summary Amounts
Run the program PRC: Update Project Summary Amounts for a Single Project for your XX
Capital Services project to summarize the costs. The allocation rule in this practice uses a prorate
basis method. This basis method uses summary amounts during allocation generation processing
to determine the basis percentage for each chargeable target task.
Generate the Allocation Transactions
You are ready to generate allocation transactions for the current GL period. Submit the program
PRC: Generate Allocation Transactions for the Vision Services operating unit. Specify your rule
name, the current GL period, and today's date as the expenditure item date in the program
parameters.

Review the output report. You may see exceptions on the report. For example, the exception
code PA_AL_ZERO_TXN_BASIS_AMT means that no actual total burdened costs are
associated with the target task. As a result, the program did not allocate costs to the task.
Review and Release the Allocation Run
Use the Review Allocation Runs window to review the status, basis details, source details, and
transaction totals for the allocation run. Release the allocation run. When you release the

allocation run, Oracle Project Costing submits the concurrent program PRC: Release Allocation
Runs.

Asset Capitalization


Practice - Define and Assign Assets

Overview
In this practice, you will assign an asset cost allocation method to your XX Capital Services
project and set the grouping level for task 3.0 to Common Costs. You will also define two assets
on your project and assign the assets to top-level tasks. Finally, you will run cost distribution
programs for your project to begin preparing costs for capitalization.

Assumptions
Tasks
Set the Cost Allocation Method for Your Project
After consulting with your project manager, you have decided that when the generate asset lines
program cannot automatically associate an asset line with a single asset, the program should
spread the asset costs evenly across the assets. Set the cost allocation method on your XX Capital
Services project to Spread Evenly.
Set the Grouping Level for Task 3.0
In addition, you want to collect common costs on your project and allocate these costs to assets
at a later point in time. Set the grouping level for task 3.0 to Common Costs.
Define and Assign Assets
The asset manager sent you information regarding two assets that you are building on your XX
Capital Services project.

Practice - Capitalize Assets

Overview
In this practice, you will update summary amounts for your project, place your two assets in
service, generate asset lines, and interface the assets to Oracle Assets. Finally, you will view the
assets in Oracle Assets.
Assumptions

Tasks
Run the program PRC: Update Project Summary Amounts for a Single Project for your XX
Capital Services project to summarize the costs.
Place Assets in Service
Your project manager has certified that the XXLab Building and XXLab Computer assets are
finished and ready for capitalization. Change the asset type for both assets to As-Built and record
an actual in service date of 31-DEC-2006.
Note: You are entering 31-DEC-2006 in order to demonstrate the interface to Oracle Assets. If
you enter today's date, you will not be able to interface the asset to Oracle Assets because the
asset period is not open.
Generate Asset Lines
The costs on your project are final accounted in Oracle Subledger Accounting and the two assets
have in service dates, so you are now ready to generate asset lines for your XX Capital Services
project. To generate asset lines, use today's date as the Asset Date Through and this Sunday's
date as the PA Through Date. You are also ready to include the costs from common cost task 3.0
when you generate asset lines.
Note your request ID:
Review the output report for the program PRC: Generate Asset Lines for a Single Project.
Review and Assign Asset Lines
Review the asset lines for your XX Capital Services project and answer the following questions:

1. Why are all asset lines for task 1.0 assigned to XXLab Building?
2. Why are all asset lines for task 2.0 assigned to XXLab Computer?
3. Why are all asset lines for task 3.0 split between the two assets?
4. Why are the asset lines grouped by expenditure types such as Clerical, Hotel, XXMotor

Pool and Trucks?
After completing the asset line analysis, you decide to move some costs on task 3.0 from XXLab
Computer to XXLab Building. Split an asset line assigned to XXLab Computer for task 3.0 and
assign 85% of the cost to XX Lab Building and the remainder to XXLab Computer.
Interface the Assets to Oracle Assets
When you are satisfied with the asset lines, you are ready to interface the assets to Oracle Assets.
Submit the program PRC: Interface Assets to Oracle Assets. Ensure that you enter your XXCS
project number in both the From Project Number and To Project Number program parameter
fields.
Note your request ID:
Review the output report.
View the Assets in Oracle Assets
You can now view your assets in Mass Additions in Oracle Assets. Use the responsibility Assets,
Vision Services (USA). Navigate to the Find Mass Additions window to query the assets for you
project. For the find criteria, also include SVCS CORP as the Book. Select one of the MERGED
lines, review the details, and view the project details.

1. Why are all asset lines for task 1.0 assigned to XXLab Building?
Answer: You assigned only XXLab Building to top task 1.0. As a result, the asset lines
generation program assigned all costs to this asset.
2. Why are all asset lines for task 2.0 assigned to XXLab Computer?
Answer: You assigned only XXLab Computer to top task 2.0. As a result, the asset lines
generation program assigned all costs to this asset.
3. Why are all asset lines for task 3.0 split between the two assets?
Answer: You set the grouping level for task 3.0 to Common Costs and assigned Spread
Evenly as the cost allocation method for your project. As a result, the asset lines
generation program divided the capitalizable costs for task 3.0 evenly between the two
eligible assets.
4. Why are the asset lines grouped by expenditure types such as Clerical, Hotel, XXMotor
Pool and Trucks?
Answer: The project type for your project is Construction. The grouping method
assigned to the project type is Expenditure Type. As a result, the asset lines generation
program grouped all costs by the expenditure type associated with the expenditure type
for each capitalizable expenditure item.

Appendix C: Asset Capitalization: Capitalizing Interest

Practice - Define a Capitalized Interest Rate Name

Overview
In this practice, you will define a capitalized interest rate name for local debt costs.
Assumptions

Tasks
Define the Basic Rate Name Information
Your company plans to calculate capitalized interest for costs incurred when you invest in long-
term capital projects. Define a capitalized interest rate name to represent the interest type that the
finance department plans to capitalize as specified in the following table:
Field Value
Rate Name XXDebt Costs-Local
Description Cost of Borrowings
Expenditure Type Interest
Define the Additional Information
Define additional information for the capitalized interest rate name. For the operating unit Vision
Services, you want the expenditure organization source to be the project owning organization.
Each project must have an Open CIP amount of 10,000.00 and be at least 30 days from the start
date to meet the threshold for calculation of capitalized interest. Select Full as the current period
convention to specify the portion of the current period CIP amount to include in the interest
calculation. Choose to spread the amounts evenly across accounting periods. Finally, assign the
Simple interest method to this capitalized interest rate name.
Define the Expenditure Type Exclusions
For Vision Services, exclude the following expenditure types from interest rate calculation for the
capitalized interest rate name:
− F&A Costs
− Fringe
− Overhead

Practice - Define a Capitalized Interest Rate Schedule

Overview
In this practice, you will define a capitalized interest rate schedule for capital debt costs.
Assumptions

Tasks
Define Capitalized Interest Rate Schedule Header Information
Define a capitalized interest rate schedule to specify the multipliers for the XXDebt Costs-Local
capitalized interest rate name that you defined in the previous practice. Define the information
for the provisional capitalized interest rate schedule and name it XXDebt Cost Schedule. Use the
organization hierarchy information as specified in the following table:
Field Value
Hierarchy Global
Version 1
Define the Version Information
Create the initial version of the schedule. Name the first version and identify the first day of
current month as the start date. You do not have an end date for this version at this time.
Define the Multipliers and Compile
First, enter the multiplier for Vision Corporation, the start organization that you specified for the
hierarchy. Interest rates for operating your Services-East organization are higher than for other
organizations, so the finance department has provided you with a separate multiplier for
Services-East. Enter the multipliers as specified in the following table:
Organization Rate Name Multiplier

Vision Corporation XXDebt Costs-Local .25
Services-East XXDebt Costs-Local .37
When you are finished, save and compile the schedule.
