Dears, Any one can help me in this problem:
After creating a Fixed Price project, using the Cost-to-Cost calculation, we have budgeted for one cost category and recorded one fee (to simplify).
We have encountered a small issue in the revenue recognition distribution.
After taking a look at the distribution generated by GP, we have picked the general pattern behind it which is illustrated below:
Cost Side:
|
Other Module |
Project Transaction Entry (EE) |
Revenue Recognition |
Debit |
Contra Account |
WIP |
Project Expense |
Credit |
Accounts Payable |
Contra Account |
WIP |
Billing Side:
|
Other Module |
Project Transaction Entry (Billing) |
Revenue Recognition |
Debit |
|
Accounts Receivable |
WIP |
Credit |
|
Project Billing |
Revenue Excess |
After checking the trial balance we found in all cases that the WIP account and the Project Billing account have balances while they should be cleared out to Zeros by the revenue recognition generated distribution entry.
And in all cases the WIP account and the Project Billing account have the same balance amount except that they stand in different sides of each other ( the WIP account is Debit and the Project Billing account is Credit with the same amount)
In that case there will be one entry missing in the Revenue Recognition generated distribution entry which is as follows:
|
|
Debit |
Project Billing |
Credit |
WIP |
Please advise if this entry is supposed to be generated somewhere else in GP or is it a missing part of the RR distribution entry.
