Setting Up the Actual Rate Calculations Program

Access the Process Actual Rate Calculations form.

From Period/Year and Thru Period/Year

Specify a beginning and ending fiscal period and year to use for selecting records from the Burdening Summarized Ledger table (F52G02).

Reference ID

Specify the reference ID for the R52G600 program to assign to actual rate calculation records. When processing actual rate calculations, the R52G600 program deletes records for which the reference ID already exists and creates new records.

Specify a version of the R52G600 program to run. If you leave this field blank, the system uses version XJDE0001.

Ledger Type

Specify the ledger type of the transactions that you want to include in the actual rate calculation. Enter a valid ledger type from the Ledger Type Master Setup program (P0025).

Burden Source for Expenses

Enter a code that identifies the source of the pool grouping code. The pool grouping code can be derived from category code 12 from either the home business of the employee or from the project.

The system uses the burden source associated with the burden category to retrieve the pool ID from the Pool Grouping Codes table (F48S84). Values are:

1: (Employee). The system retrieves the pool grouping code for labor transactions from the Employee Pool Grouping Code field (EPGC).

2: (Project). The system retrieves the pool grouping code for the transaction from the Job Pool Grouping Code field (JPGC).

Include FAR Unallowable Expenses (include federal acquisition regulation expenses)

Select to include transactions for which the business unit or object account has been identified as a FAR unallowable expense.
