Project Accounting Overhead

Posted on by 1,495

Hi,

I'm working with TWO demo company and testing some transactions.  I have a project setup as Fixed Price and the Accounting Method is Cost to Cost.  

I have the default Pay Code coming from the Employee and the Default Profit Type coming from Cost Category under Timesheet setup.

I'm using the default Consulting cost category loaded with the demo data.

Each time I enter a timesheet transaction, overhead is being calculated.  For employee Pilar, the overhead is a 1 to 1 based off his pay code rate.  The next employee "BARB0001" gets 15 cents on the dollar of overhead.

This tells me something on the employee is triggering the overhead, but I cannot find where.  I went to the employee class and have ensured the Overhead fields are blank.

There are employee rate tables but I've cleared out any overhead amounts/calculations.

I'm trying to have no overhead calculate at all.  Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

Steve

    Hi Steve,

    Overheads might be calculated either from Cost Category or Class of Cost Categories. There is an OVERHEAD tab, where a fixed %age or multiple defined.

    Regards.
