Contract Billing

Field or Control

Description

Total Billing Adjustment

Enter the adjustment for total billing on the contract. The amount entered should include all contract line types. After values are updated on the contract line, the Total Billing Adjustment should equal the sum of the adjustments to Billing Amount on amount and percent based lines (after discounts/surcharges), Billing Limit on rate based lines and Recurring Billing on recurring type lines.

Total Billing After Adjustment

Displays the total billing amount after the adjustment. It is calculated as the sum of total billing on the contract before amendment plus the current total billing adjustment.

Unallocated Billing

Calculated by the system, displays the amount of billing not yet allocated to contract lines. PeopleSoft recommends adjustments be fully allocated across contract lines and after doing so, the Unallocated Billing will equal zero. This is not a necessary condition to change the amendment status to Ready and to process the amendment, but is recommended.

Fixed Billing

Field or Control

Description

Fixed Billing Adjustment

Enter the total adjustment to fixed billing amounts on amount or percent based lines. To process the amendment, the amount in this field must equal the sum of the Adjustment Billing Amount values on amount and percent based contract lines.

Discount/Surcharge

Displays the adjustment to discounts/surcharges on amount or percent based lines.

Net Adjustment

Displays the net billing adjustment to amount and percent based lines after adjustments to discounts.

Unallocated Fixed Billing

Displays the amount of fixed billing not yet allocated to amount and percent based lines. To process the amendment, this amount must zero.

If an inclusive prepaid is modified as part of the amendment then, this field displays the unallocated inclusive prepaid amount plus the sum of the unallocated adjustment billing amount of contract line , if any.

Inclusive Prepaids Adjustment

Displays the adjustment in prepaids designated as inclusive. Since inclusive prepaids are included in Fixed Billing Adjustment, the adjustment to the inclusive prepaids is displayed and used to validate the allocation status.

See Prepaid Amendments.

Allocation

System sets the value of this field on saving the page or clicking on Recalculate button. User also can manually set this value. Values include:

  • Incomplete: This value appears by default and indicates that amounts for fixed amount contract lines have not been fully allocated.

  • Complete: This value appears once fixed amount changes are allocated across all eligible amount-based contract lines. Selecting Complete initiates system edit checking to ensure that you have fully allocated all adjustment amounts and discounts. An error message appears if the page fails edit checking.

Note: You cannot ready the amendment until you have successfully set the Allocation option to Complete and saved the page.

Recalculate

Click to recalculate the Unallocated Adjustment for Billing at the contract level, the Unallocated Adjustment for fixed amount contract lines and the status of the fixed amount allocation. The amounts displayed under Line Totals are also recalculated.

If you selected the Retrieve Billing Price check box on an amount based contract line, when you click the Recalculate button, the system retrieves the list price from the PeopleSoft Enterprise Pricer or the basic list price from Order management, multiplies it by the quantity on the contract line and updates the Extended Price, New Billing Amount, and Net Amount fields on the contract line.

Note: The Fixed Billing group box is not applicable for Federal Reimbursable Agreement contracts hence it is hidden.

Contract Line Pricing

The system displays contract lines with an active status and contract lines being Cancelled under the current amendment .

Field or Control

Description

Retrieve Billing Price

Select this check box to reprice the contract line. When you select this option and click the Recalculate button, the system retrieves the list price from the PeopleSoft Enterprise Pricer or the basic list price from Order management, multiplies it by the quantity and updates the Extended Price, New Billing Amount, and New Net Billing fields on the contract line.

Line Number

Displays the contract line number for each contract line.

Adjust Billing Retroactively

Applicable for amount and percent-based contract lines.

When you select this option, the system updates event amounts on the billing plan that have already been billed and sets the billing plan status to Action Required if there is any pending amount to be allocated to the unprocessed events.

When this option is not selected, the system does not process a change to previously billed amounts. However, for percent complete billing plans, the system does adjust the incremental percentage for previously billed events such that the percentages match the adjustment being made to the billing plan.

This option can also be selected at the business unit level, and overridden at the contract line level.

Note: This field is available for entry after entering a value in the New Billing Amount field.

Note: When the billing plan status is Action Required, you must access the billing plan and manually update the amounts on existing events or add new events until the total billing amount is accounted for in the events.

Adjust Revenue Retroactively

Applicable for amount and percent-based contract lines.

When you select this option, the system updates event amounts on the revenue plan that have already been processed and sets the revenue plan status to Action Required if there is any pending amount to be allocated to the unprocessed events.

When this option is not selected, the system does not process a change to already recognized revenue events. However, for percent complete revenue plans, the system does update the incremental percentage for previously recognized revenue so that the percentages match the adjustment that is made to the revenue plan.

Note: This field is available for entry on this page after entering a value in the New Billing Amount field when the contract does not Separate Billing and Revenue. If the contract does Separate Billing and Revenue then this field is available for edit on the Amendment Revenue Allocation page.

Note: When the revenue plan status is Action Required, you must access the revenue plan and manually update the amounts on existing events or add new events until the total revenue amount is accounted for in the events.

Reverse Billing and Revenue

Contract Revenue

Field or Control

Description

Total Revenue Adjustment

Enter the adjustment for total revenue on the contract. The amount entered should include all contract line types. After values are updated on the contract lines, the Total Revenue Adjustment entered here should equal the sum of the adjustments on the contract lines including the Revenue Amount on amount and percent based lines (after discounts/surcharges), Revenue Limit on rate based lines and Recurring Revenue on recurring type lines.

This field can be edited if either the Separate Fixed Billing and Revenue check box or the Separate As Incurred Billing and Revenue check box is selected on the contract. Otherwise, the field is display only and equals the Total Billing Adjustment amount on the Amendment Billing Allocation page.

Total Revenue After Adjustment

Displays the new Total Revenue for the contract including the impact of the adjustment to Total Revenue.

Documented Price Adjustments

Displays the sum of the price adjustments documented in the Price Adjustment page. You can click the amount field to access the Price Adjustments page to make any modifications. The link is enabled only if the Separate Fixed Billing and Revenue or Separate As Incurred Billing and Revenue check box is selected on the contract.

Action Required

A visual indicator to the user that some action is required to document the price adjustments. This message is visible only if the Documented Price Adjustments does not equal the difference between total billing after adjustment and total revenue after adjustment.. If either is changed then you have to recalculate the price adjustments by clicking the Recalculate button.

Unallocated Revenue

Calculated by the system, displays the amount of revenue not yet allocated to contract lines. PeopleSoft recommends amendments be fully allocated across contract lines and after doing so, the Unallocated Revenue will equal zero. This is not a necessary condition to change the amendment status to Ready and to process the amendment, but is recommended.

Basis of Allocation

The system provides options for programmatically allocating a change in Total Revenue to the contract lines and an option to do it manually. For the automated options, each contract line is allocated a portion of the total revenue adjustment based on the line’s relative percentage to total. This is similar to the methodology on the Revenue Allocation page prior to contract activation except that you have options to set the basis of allocation. Using the selected basis (Current Revenue, Extended Revenue Price or New Lines Only) the system calculates the line’s Basis for Allocation, Relative Percentage and Suggested Revenue Adjustment. New Revenue Amount and New Revenue Limit are programmatically updated by adding the Suggested Revenue Adjustment to the current amount (or limit) for the line.

  • Current Revenue - Select this option to use the line’s current revenue amount (or current revenue limit if a rate based line) as a basis for the allocation.

  • Extended Revenue Price - Select this option to use the line’s extended revenue price as a basis for allocation.

  • New Lines Only - Select this option to allocate the change in Total Revenue to new lines being added in the amendment. If multiple lines are added in the amendment, then the product’s extended revenue price is used as a basis for allocating the adjustment to the new contract lines.

  • Manual — This is the default value. With this option, the New Revenue Amount (or New Revenue Limit for a rate based line) are updated manually. Contract lines with a discount are always updated using the manual option.

Note: With all options, you can enter an override for the New Revenue Amount or New Revenue Limit on the line. Similar to processing before contract activation, other lines that participate in the allocation (not being overridden) receive an allocation of the remaining adjustment amount after considering the amount of the override.

Fixed Revenue

Field or Control

Description

Fixed Revenue Adjustment

Enter the total adjustment to revenue amounts on amount or percent based lines. To process the amendment, the amount in this field must equal the sum of the Adjustment Revenue Amount values on amount and percent based contract lines.

If an inclusive prepaid has been modified in the amendment, the inclusive prepaids adjustment amount must also be included in the fixed billing adjustment amount.

This field can be edited if the Separate Fixed Billing and Revenue check box is selected on the contract. Otherwise, the field is grayed out and equals the Fixed Billing Adjustment amount on the Amendment Billing Allocation page.

Discount/Surcharge

Displays the adjustment to revenue discounts/surcharges on amount and percent based lines.

If the Separate Fixed Billing and Revenue check box is not selected on the contract, then the value equals the Billing Discounts/Surcharge amount on the Amendment Billing Allocation page.

Net Adjustment

Displays the net revenue adjustment to amount and percent based lines after adjustments to discounts.

If the Separate Fixed Billing and Revenue check box is not selected on the contract, then the value equals the Net Adjustment amount on the Amendment Billing Allocation page.

Unallocated Fixed Revenue

If the Separate Fixed Billing and Revenue check box is not selected on the contract, then the value equals the Unallocated Fixed Billing amount on the Amendment Billing Allocation page.

Inclusive Prepaids Adjustment

Displays the adjustment to prepaids designated as inclusive. Since inclusive prepaids are included in Fixed Revenue, the adjustment to the inclusive prepaids is displayed and used to validate the allocation status.

Allocation

Applies to amount and percent based lines. The system sets the value of this field on saving the page or clicking the Recalculate button. You can also manually set this value if Separate Fixed Billing and Revenue is selected on the contract. Values include:

  • Incomplete: This value appears by default and indicates that revenue amount allocation has not been completely performed.

  • Complete: This value appears once you have allocated the contract line revenue amount change across all eligible amount and percent based contract lines. Selecting Complete initiates system edit checking to ensure that you have fully allocated all adjustment amounts and discounts. An error message appears if the page fails edit checking.

This field is grayed out if the Separate Fixed Billing and Revenue check box is not selected on the contract and the value will equal that on the Amendment Billing Allocation page.

Recalculate

When you click this button, the system does the following:

  • Calculates the basis for allocation, relative percentage and suggested revenue adjustment for each line.

  • Calculates New Revenue Amount (or New Revenue Limit for rate based lines) when one of the automated allocation methods is selected.

  • Recalculates the extended revenue price for lines where Retrieve Revenue Price is selected.

  • Recalculates the unallocated revenue adjustment amount for the contract.

  • Recalculates the unallocated fixed revenue amount and sets the value of the allocation to Complete or Incomplete based on the unallocated fixed revenue value.

  • Recalculates header and line level discounts when there is a change in the discount percentage or a change in the contract line revenue amount.

  • Recalculates amounts under the Line Totals group box.

Note: The Fixed Revenue group box is not applicable for Federal Reimbursable Agreement contracts hence it is hidden.

Contract Line Pricing

The system displays contract lines with an active status and contract lines being Cancelled under the current amendment.

Field or Control

Description

Retrieve Revenue Price

Used in conjunction with the Recalculate option, select this check box to reprice the contract line's revenue price based on the list price in Order Management or the Enterprise Pricer. This calculation uses the quantity for the line including any modifications to that quantity.
