nonlabor expenditure types, nonlabor resources, and nonlabor resource organizations.
Project Financial Management uses the most detailed applicable rate. For example, if a rate
exists for the expenditure type, nonlabor resource, and nonlabor resource organization
combination, that is the rate used.
If that combination does not exist, then the application uses the rate for the expenditure
type and nonlabor resource combination. Otherwise, the rate for the expenditure type is
used.

5. Review Set Assignments tab to associate sets with financial plan types so that project
managers can use them to create budget or forecast versions for projects or project
templates.
Financial plan types are available for selection only when projects or project templates are
created for project units linked to selected sets.
For example, currently, the set codes associated with the financial plan type are
CONSERV, INTSERV, and PRGUSPROJ. So, the financial plan type can be used only on
projects created for the Consulting Services project unit.
6. Review Plan Settings tab to specify the cost and revenue items to include in financial plan
versions, level of detail for planning, calendar and period options, and rate derivation
options.
Note that separate Cost Options and Revenue Options regions are displayed. This is
because the Planning Options allows for cost and revenue in separate plan versions:
Field Value
Cost Options and Revenue Options Indicates whether you want to review and
edit quantity, cost and revenue amounts, and
rates in your financial plan version.
Planning Level Specifies whether you want to enter and
review financial plan amounts at the project
level, at the project level and for top tasks, or
for all tasks.
For example, the current financial plan type
supports granular planning down to lowest-
level tasks.
Calendar Type Specifies whether planning is for the plan line
duration (using the option None) or for
periods in the accounting or project
accounting calendar.
For example, the current financial plan type
supports planning based on periods of the
project accounting calendar associated with
the business unit.

Period Profile Determines period grouping and display


when you edit financial plan versions.
For example, the period profile associated
with the current financial plan type is the
Project Accounting Period period profile that
is based on the Project accounting calendar
calendar type.

7. Review Rate Settings tab to specify the actual or planning rates used to calculate cost and
revenue amounts on associated financial plan versions.

Rate Schedules Specify rate schedules separately for
business units. When you create financial
plan versions for a project, rates are derived
based on the business unit the project
belongs to.

Use planning rates Indicates whether you want to use planning


rates or actual rates for calculating cost and
revenue. If you use planning rates, you can
specify cost and bill rate schedules at the
person, job, nonlabor, and resource class
levels.

Cost and Revenue Options If using actual rates, optionally specify cost
rate and bill rate schedules at the resource
class level. These rates are used if actual
cost or revenue derivation logic is unable to
derive rates.

8. Review Generation Options tab to indicate how cost and revenue are calculated when you
generate a financial plan version from another financial plan or from the project plan.
Field Value
Forecast ETC Method Defines how estimate-to-complete values are
calculated for associated forecast versions.

Carry forward unused amounts from past If you are using Remaining plan as your
periods forecast ETC method, then you can use the
Carry forward unused amounts from past

Practice 10-1: Creating Event Types

Overview
Vision Corporation uses project contracts to create invoices and recognize revenue for
consulting services in the United States. The US1 business unit uses event types to

Practice 10-2: Creating Revenue Methods

Overview
Vision Corporation uses project contracts to recognize revenue for consulting services in the
United States. The consulting services organizations are within the Consulting Services project
unit, which is part of the US1 business unit. The implementation team defines revenue methods
for recognizing contract revenue. Each revenue method uses a predefined revenue method
classification, which is the source used to calculate and recognize revenue amounts.
This implementation environment contains several revenue method classifications that were
previously created. These are:
 Amount Based Method
 As Billed
 As Incurred
 Percent Complete
 Rate Based Method
In this practice, you create a revenue method for each predefined revenue method
classification. The revenue methods you create in this practice are for contracts that bill external
parties. These are not enabled for intercompany billing.
