Project Cost Variance - Timesheet Entry

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 2,475

when generate project cost report from General Ledger "Account Balance" and compare it to projects costs from all projects reports "Category Actual Transactions" for example system is showing big variance. " GL show amount more than Project Module Report"

after making some investigation, I noticed that the variance exactly came from some timesheet entry. the transactions are posted to GL with posting type "Inter-company Cost".

These transactions are not affecting the project reports.

I do not have any inter-company timesheet entry. how can I solve this deference issue ?

I need to affect the project reports to be the same as GL affect?

    You case really seems strange.

    With what I have seen so far in various screenshots, I can confirm that you have intercompany timesheets in place. Moreover, you should have the Project Posted transactions as well.

    I think it is also little difficult to trace the whole thing together here in this conversation chain in bits. You can connect with me, if you would like me to look into your system to recommend more.

    Hi Rasheed,

    I reviewed the screenshots, from those, I could not conclude if the timesheet you provided was the origin.

    Can you please provide a screenshot of the "General" tab of the voucher transaction line you have in the screenshot ?

    HI Rasheed,

    With the situation and information about your query here, I could only suggest the following.

    1. If you are able to see the GL Transactions with Posting type as 'Intercompany - Cost", try to see the origin of the transaction from the GL voucher. This should help you to trace the timesheet document, if at all it is originated by it. You should be able to easily trace of the origin of these transactions.

    2. It would be helpful to some screenshots of the GL transactions, their voucher and transaction origin.

    Dear Sandeep, Thanks for your reply.

    I do not have any setup for intercompany timesheet. In Project parameter, the intercompany sheduleing is not enabled, and in the posting profile, no account defined for intercompany cost.

    please advice

    I just saw this after I posted my first reply. So if you are on CU7, do you have business scenarios for using intercompany timesheets at all ?
