How Invoice and Revenue Rates Are Determined

Oracle Fusion Cloud Project Billing uses bill rates, burdening, and transfer price schedules to derive standard bill rates, multipliers, markups, and bases for calculating potential revenue when the revenue method classification on a revenue plan is as billed, as incurred, or rate based.

Similarly, bill rates derive invoice amounts when the invoice method classification on a bill plan is rate based.

Settings That Affect Rates and Overrides

The specific schedules to use to calculate invoice and revenue amounts are stored on either the bill plan or revenue plan. They are based on the schedule types specified on the invoice method and revenue method as listed in the following table.

Schedule Type

Rate Source

Labor schedule, bill rate

Standard employee bill rate schedule

Standard job bill rate schedule

Nonlabor schedule, bill Rate

Standard nonlabor bill rate schedule

Labor schedule, burden

Standard labor burden schedule

Nonlabor schedule, burden

Standard nonlabor burden schedule

Labor and nonlabor schedule, burden

Standard burden schedule

Labor schedule, transfer price

Standard labor transfer price schedule

Nonlabor schedule type, transfer price

Standard nonlabor transfer price schedule

Tip: When the labor or nonlabor schedule type is bill rate, you can enter labor or nonlabor bill rate overrides on the bill plan or revenue plan.

How Bill Rates and Bill Rate Overrides Are Calculated

Oracle Fusion Project Billing uses this order to determine the labor bill rate for a billing transaction originating from an expenditure item:

  1. Employee bill rate override

  2. Employee job assignment override with job bill rate override

  3. Job bill rate override

  4. Labor multiplier override

  5. Standard employee bill rate schedule

  6. Employee job assignment override with standard job bill rate schedule

  7. Standard job bill rate schedule

Oracle Fusion Project Billing uses this order to determine the nonlabor bill rate for a billing transaction originating from an expenditure item:

  1. Nonlabor bill rate override for a specific expenditure type, resource, and organization

  2. Nonlabor bill rate override for a specific expenditure type and resource

  3. Nonlabor bill rate override for a specific expenditure type

  4. Standard nonlabor bill rate schedule for a specific expenditure type, resource, and organization

  5. Standard nonlabor bill rate schedule for a specific expenditure type and resource

  6. Standard nonlabor bill rate schedule for a specific expenditure type
