Transaction Flow Control
Three basic ways are available to control the flow of data coming into PeopleSoft Project Costing:
-
Set a project or activity to Inactive status.
In this case, the project and activity do not appear in the prompt lists of the PeopleSoft feeder systems.
-
Use status control options.
On the Status Types page, select the analysis types that each feeder system uses; and then select a project control action to associate with the analysis type.
Note:
No project control action occurs if the Project Control Action check box is deselected.
Values include:
Warning: Displays a warning before the system accepts the transaction.
Reject: Rejects the transaction.
-
Use the PeopleSoft Commitment Control tolerance percentage.
After you create a budget, you can establish a setting to trigger a commitment control exception that allows up to a specified percentage over the budget.
Instructions on controlling incoming transactions appear in the PeopleSoft Project Costing documentation.
