Project Accounting Adding Employee Expenses

Posted on by j1kauff

I have a project that I am billing and I am adding an employee expense that falls under the cost category id of MISCELLANEOUS. When I add the line to the Time and Materials Billing window the "Total Cost" is correct but the "Amount" does not populate with the amount? I have attached the window below and as you can see the MISCELLANEOUS line is $0.00 where as when I add the TRAVEL line it populates the "Amount" field correctly like I want. Is there a setting for the Cost Category ID's that would make the MISCELLANEOUS id populate the Amount fields?

Thank you,

Jon

Thank you GP2Me I actually discovered this just before I got your post. I went back to the setup of the Cost Category and found that MISCELLANEOUS was set to None on the "Profit Type - TM" field and that TRAVEL was set to Margin% at 0.00% I changed MISCELLANEOUS to Margin% 0.00% and it works like I want.

Thanks for taking the time to respond. Much appreciated.

In project maintenance window, click buget, and check what the profit type for TRAVEL is, then setup MISCELLANEOUS same profit type as TRAVEL. I think you need setup as M%.
