You must complete the following steps before generating invoices for a direct project in Oracle Projects:

1. Enter an agreement and fund the project, using the Enter Agreements window.

2. Enter budgets.

Note: If your project uses the cost-to-cost invoice generation method, you must include burdened costs in your cost budget and revenue amounts in your revenue budget. Without these amounts, Oracle Projects cannot successfully generate invoices for your project.

3. Baseline the project budget.

Note: You must fund the budget before you can baseline it.

4. For projects using as-work-occurs billing, generate revenue for expenditure items using the Generate Draft Revenue process.

5. For projects using event billing, enter billing events using the Event option in the Project or Task window.

Note: If you do not want to generate an invoice for a specific top task on your project, uncheck the Ready to Bill check box in the Control Billing by Top Task window. Oracle Projects assumes you want to invoice all billable top tasks on contract projects.
