Explanation:
Implement AutoAccounting to charge appropriate expense accounts
When you implement AutoAccounting, you can charge straight time costs to a labor expense
account and overtime costs to an overhead or overtime expense account.
To charge straight time and overtime to different accounts, you define an AutoAccounting rule
based on expenditure type, expenditure category, service type, compensation rule, or labor cost
multiplier.
Note:
*Labor Cost Account Function
When you run the PRC: Distribute Labor Costs process, Oracle Projects calculates labor cost
amounts based upon employee labor cost rates and compensation rules. After calculating labor
costs, Oracle Projects uses the Labor Cost Account transactions to debit an expense account for
raw labor costs.
*You need to define at least one overtime expenditure type. You use the Expenditure Types
window to define overtime expenditure types classified by the Overtime expenditure type class.
