Reverse Cost Adjustments in Oracle Project Costing for Reversed Distributions

When you reverse distributions that have associated cost adjustment information, you must also reverse the cost adjustments in Oracle Project Costing.

Note: This is only applicable if you've an Oracle Joint Venture Management integration with Project Costing and you’ve set up the joint venture to create cost adjustments in Project Costing for each stakeholder’s distributed costs. See About Creating and Sending Cost Adjustments to Oracle Project Costing for more information.

The reversed distributions have the initial Project Costing status of "Awaiting Accounting." After you create credit memos for the reversed distributions and account them in Joint Venture Management, the Project Costing status of the reversed distributions changes to "Available to Process" and the distribution status to "Process Complete.” You then process the reversed distributions to negate the cost adjustments in Project Costing.
