Usage

Progress Payment Worksheet Page

CA_PGP_WKS

Calculate progress payment amounts and submit them for billing.

Accumulate Progress Payments Costs Page

RUN_CA_PGP_COSTS

Retrieve incurred and estimated costs from the Project Transactions (PROJ_RESOURCE) table to determine eligible costs for progress payment requests, update or inserts the resulting rows into the Contracts Progress Payments Costs (CA_PGP_COSTS) table, or calculate contracts fixed price as a batch process.

Cost and Contract Fixed Price Page

CA_PGP_COST

View incurred or estimated costs used in the progress payment worksheet calculations. When viewing the incurred or estimated costs on the Costs and Contract Fixed Price page, the system retrieves the data from the Contracts Progress Payment Costs table based on the As of Date on the worksheet. If an exact date match is not found, the system uses the closest past As of Date to populate the page. If no data is available then the page is blank.

After you have defined your contract, set up your progress payment terms, and are ready to request a progress payment amount; you can prepare a progress payment request using the progress payment worksheet. Progress payment worksheets enable you to calculate the amount of the progress payment request for invoicing to the customer and then approve it for billing.

When preparing the progress payment request, you can import any costs that are considered for the progress payment request. The system does some of this work for you by retrieving stored cost data in PeopleSoft Project Costing. This data is stored in the Project Transactions (PROJ_RESOURCE) table, under analysis types that are associated with the PeopleSoft Inception to Date (PSITD) and PeopleSoft Estimated Cost to Complete (PSECC) analysis groups.

The PeopleSoft Inception to Date (PSITD) analysis group is used to store costs incurred by the contractor as of the beginning of the contract. All analysis types associated with this analysis group are considered costs and are included in the Inception to Date cost calculations. The PeopleSoft Estimated Cost to Complete (PSECC) analysis group is used to store estimated or anticipated costs to be able to meet contract deliverables between a given date and the end of the contract. These include analysis types associated with budgeted or forecasted costs and are included in the estimated cost to complete calculation.

When you are ready to populate the worksheet, run the Accumulate Progress Payment Costs process (CA_PGP_CALC) to retrieve the most current cost data from the PROJ_RESOURCE table and update various fields in the progress payment worksheet. After the fields are populated, you can update or modify certain fields to include any additional costs that are eligible for progress payment requests. After the worksheet is completed and submitted, it is no longer editable.

Running the Accumulate progress Payment Costs process can be done in batch, right before populating the worksheet, in real time, through the Review Costs page, or not at all. You are not required to run the process prior to populating the worksheet if you are completing the worksheet manually. However, running the process enables you to retrieve the most current costing data from PeopleSoft Project Costing and reduces the amount of data entry required to complete the worksheet.

Progress payment amounts are billed using an immediate billing plan associated with the progress payment worksheet.

Note: The structure of the progress payment worksheet conforms to the requirements and structure of form 1443 to enable you to easily map these values to your form. PeopleSoft Contracts does not support any automatic or direct mapping to these forms.

Calculating progress payment amounts can be a very complex task. To facilitate this process, PeopleSoft Contracts delivers the following features:

  • A batch process to retrieve cost data that is applicable to progress payment calculations.

  • A worksheet to assist in determining the allowable progress payment request amount.

  • Formulas to automatically calculate certain line items within the worksheet.

Retrieve Cost Data

PeopleSoft Contracts stores cost rows in the Project Transactions (PROJ_RESOURCE) table in PeopleSoft Project Costing. When you are ready to process a progress payment request, run the Accumulate Progress Payment Costs process (CA_PGP_CALC) to retrieve the most current eligible costs from the PROJ_RESOURCE table. To determine which costs are eligible for progress payment processing, the system looks at costs rows that meet the following criteria:

  • Costs rows that have an accounting date that is less than or equal to the as of date specified for the batch process for inception to date costs (PSITD), and costs rows that have an accounting date that is greater than the as of date specified for the batch process for estimated cost (PSECC).

  • Cost rows with analysis types that are associated with the PSITD or PSECC analysis groups.

  • Costs rows associated with the projects and activities linked to the progress payment terms being processed.

The system retrieves the cost rows that meet the criteria listed above, and updates the Contracts Progress Payment Costs table (CA_PGP_COSTS). After the system populates the table with the cost data, you can copy the information into the progress payment worksheet to calculate the progress payment request amount.

See Accumulate Progress Payments Costs Page.

Determine Progress Payment Amounts

PeopleSoft Contracts delivers a worksheet to assist you in calculating the amount of your progress payment request. Using the worksheet, you can:

  • Determine the progress payment amount.

  • Approve the worksheet and enable it for billing plan processing.

  • Automatically create an immediate billing plan to bill for the progress payment request amount.

To populate the worksheet, you can run the Accumulate Progress Payment Costs process to retrieve the eligible costs from PeopleSoft Project Costing, modify the resulting values in the worksheet, and use the delivered formulas to calculate the final amount. Additionally, you can manually enter a progress payment amount, approve the worksheet, and send the request for processing through to PeopleSoft Billing.

See Progress Payment Worksheet Page.

Worksheet Calculations

To facilitate the worksheet calculations for progress payment amounts, PeopleSoft Contracts delivers built-in formulas that calculate certain fields in the worksheet. The results of these calculations cannot be manually edited but instead must be modified by updating the factors that are used in the calculations.

Before you can prepare and process a progress payment worksheet, you must:

  • Set up the PeopleSoft Inception to Date (PSITD) analysis group.

    For example, this analysis group can contain such analysis types as; Actual Costs (ACT), Actual Time and Labor Costs (PAY), Estimated Time and Labor Costs (TLA) and Actual Cost Sharing Costs (CAC). This analysis group is used to calculate the costs incurred by the contractor as of the beginning of the contract.

  • Set up the PeopleSoft Estimated Costs to Complete (PSECC) analysis group containing the Budget (BUD) analysis type.

    This analysis group is used to calculate the estimated or anticipated costs to meet the contract deliverables between a given date and the end of the contract.

  • Create a contract that contains amount-based contract lines.

  • Define progress payment terms.

  • Associate the progress payment terms to at least one active amount-based contract line.

  • Associate the progress payment terms to at least one project and activity combination.

  • Define and associate an immediate billing plan to the progress payment worksheet.

Warning! To prepare and process progress payments using the Accumulate Progress Payment Costs process, you must use the analysis groups PSITD and PSECC that are delivered with the system. Any analysis types that you use to represent your actual and estimated costs must be included in these analysis groups respectively, for the system to perform the progress payment calculations correctly.

Use the Progress Payment Worksheet page (CA_PGP_WKS) to calculate progress payment amounts and submit them for billing.

Progress Payment Request

The progress payment worksheet displays a scroll area which identifies each unique instance of a progress payment request or bill. When you access the worksheet, the system displays the most current worksheet first, with scroll arrows that enable you to view past progress payment requests or bills. If the progress payment terms are set to Completed or Cancelled status, new worksheets cannot be added and any pending worksheets cannot be edited.

Note: Due to progress payment worksheet sequencing requirements, once a worksheet is created and saved, it cannot be deleted.

Field or Control

Description

Contract Fixed Price

Displays the total amount of the amount-based contract lines currently associated with the progress payment terms. This value is impacted by any additions or deletions of contract lines associated with the progress payment terms.

Bill Plan Id

Enter a predefined immediate billing plan to process the progress payment worksheet request. If you specified a billing plan template and billing plan detail template when setting up your progress payment terms, leave this field blank, and the system automatically creates an immediate billing plan using the template data once the request is approved. If using a predefined immediate billing plan, that billing plan cannot be shared with any other progress payment worksheets or contract lines.

Note: If you have set up the billing plan template automation to ready the billing plan upon worksheet approval, the system creates an immediate billing plan in Ready status.

Create Bill Plan

Click the Create Bill Plan link to create a billing plan directly from the progress payment request worksheet. This link opens the Billing Plan component (CA_BILLPLAN) for an Immediate billing plan.

After you complete the required fields for the billing plan, and click the OK button, the system returns you to the Progress Payment Worksheet page and displays a link for the billing plan identifier in place of the Create Bill Plan link.

Note: Billing plans assigned to progress payment worksheets cannot be set to Ready status until the worksheet has been approved.

Calculate Amounts

Click the Calculate Amounts button to automatically recalculate any formula field in the worksheet and incorporate any changes that are made to any of the cost fields or factors. This action recalculates and updates the noneditable fields on the worksheet page.

If changes are made to the worksheet and you do not recalculate or save the worksheet prior to approving the worksheet, the system processes the worksheet with the original figures.

Note: Clicking the Approve button does not automatically trigger any recalculations of changed fields, but instead saves the worksheet as is.

Approve Worksheet

Click the Approve Worksheet button to submit the progress payment request for billing. After you click the button, the system performs the following actions:

  • Verifies that the progress payment amount does not equal zero.

  • Verifies that the progress payment amount is not greater than the contract fixed price.

  • Updates the Approved status in the Progress Payment Worksheet (CA_PGP_WKS) table to Yes.

  • Automatically creates an immediate billing plan using the following information:

    • Billing plan and billing plan detail templates specified in the Progress Payment Terms component (CA_PGP_TERMS).

    • Billing plan identifier specified on the progress payment worksheet.

      Note: If you approve the worksheet and have not assigned a billing plan and billing plan detail template, the system issues an error message.

  • Sets or updates the billing plan status to Ready, for billing plans with the Approve Progress Payments check box selected at the billing plan template level.

    Note: If you manually assign a billing plan to the progress payment worksheet and do not select the Approve Progress Payments check box for the billing plan template, the billing plan is created in Pending status, and you must manually update the billing plan status to Ready after you approve the progress payment worksheet.

  • Verifies that any negative progress payment amounts are not greater than the unliquidated amount.
