Hi Nazim,

Hi Nazim,

As per the best practice and for successful D365 FO implementation, there are 5 major phases as follows:

1. Analysis

2. Design and develop

3. Test

4 Deploy

5. Operate

In addition to that, it also depend on project scope and complexity that basically define the project type we should go for. It could be standard implementation (With Zero customization), Agile, waterfall.

Please elaborate further what exactly do you mean by cost classification?

Cost classificationm which phase cost is expense and which one is capitalized and amortized over the years.

We want to use PMA module and to create Investment and costing projects, need to classify which phase is cost project and which one is investment project

Hi Nazim,

Can you please clarify, Are you implementing D365 project operation app or D365 finance and operation project accounting module?

Investment project duration is longer comparing to cost project and one significant difference is cost project cannot be capitalized to balance sheet account and it can be only posted to profit and loss account. Where as once investment project is completed and eliminated then you can transfer the cost to fixed asset or Ledger account so i will suggest you to go for investment type long-term internal project where the costs can be capitalized in the future.

Hi Nazim,

You cannot select 02 different project Types against one project. If you create a Project as investment project then it will apply investment project logic untill project is completed. We dont define project type by phases (Analysis, Data migration, Training)

As far cost implication is concerned, You can control the ledger posting from project Group. For example, Labor cost and expenses in Training and Data migration phases you want to book into P & L account and item related cost to balance sheet account.

for (Cost capitalization) We have line property setup screen where you basically control whether transactions are chargeable or no chargeable, whether the cost amount is capitalized as a fixed asset.
