Project Manufacturing Costing Transactions

When you use Oracle Project Manufacturing, you are able to have organizations which concurrently manufacture for projects and non-project customer orders. However for proper management control purposes, item costs and charges for non-project orders are maintained and tracked distinctly separate from projects.

Cost Groups

Using Project Manufacturing, you can have many projects active at any one time. You can also have items in common (non-project) subinventory. Using cost groups, an item may have a different cost in different projects as well as a unique cost in common inventory, all within the same organization. Item costs can apply to a single project if each project belongs to a distinct cost group, or apply to a group of projects if all projects in the group are assigned to the same cost group. Items in common inventory belong to a system defined cost group and are normally costed distinctly separate from items in projects.

Project Notification

Oracle Project is notified when material transactions cross a project boundary (i.e. from project to non-project, from non-project to project, and between two different projects) or cross the task boundary of the same project. For transactions within the same project, if no specific task is entered, it is assumed to be a transaction within the same task, and hence notification to Projects is not required.

Upon notification, Projects either:

The following table summarizes some important transactions, whether they do and do not notify Oracle Projects, their respective debits and credits, and the cost used in the transaction:

Unless otherwise stated, the cost specified for the debit side of the transaction applies also to the credit side.

Note: MOH stands for material overhead. For information on material overhead charges, see Material Overhead Application.

Note: For Interorganization Transfers, the accounting entries for the Receiving Organization are shaded for clarity.
