Note: Before you run the Amount-based Revenue process, you must run the Contract Liability process if you selected the contract liability option for any applicable contract lines.

Before you run the Amount-based Revenue process, you may want to run the Process Milestones and Project Process processes to ensure that the system is picking up the most current milestone and percent complete event statuses.

If you select the Process Milestones, Process Project Progress, and Process Contract Liability check boxes in the Streamline Processing Options group box on this page, the system runs these processes for you automatically before running the Amount-based Revenue process.

Contract Options

Use the fields within this group box to filter the list of contracts on which this process runs.
