Project Processing

Project Processing includes three processes:

  1. Procurement
  2. Project Shipment
  3. Invoicing

Procurement from a Project prompts any of the following procurement processes:

  • Time Entry
  • Direct Purchase
  • Procurement from Inventory
  • Procurement from Production Order

Project Shipment – the shipment of usage posted to a project – is supported by a special document.

  • The posting of a Project Shipment document produces no value changes, which is different from inventory postings because the usage is already assigned to the project (via procurement processes).
  • Project Shipment documents are useful for process recognition and to provide a printed Shipment document.

Invoicing from a Project is based on posted usage or adduced performance. There are three types of invoicing:

  • Direct Invoicing of posted usage entries
  • Invoicing via release (Fixed Price, Realized %)
  • Invoicing based on performance (for example, realized milestones instead of posted hours)

All Project Processes have these inherent features:

  • Different options are available; therefore, a channel can be used to specify the processes.
  • Due Dates are needed in planning.
  • A planning process is completed first.
  • Entries are released based on planned processing.
  • Necessary documents are created along with releases.

The following table describes a sequence of tasks, with links to the topics that describe them.
