Capture Manufacturing and Maintenance Work Order Costs in Projects

Capture project attributes on a work order so that you can track the cost of the material and resources used in the product completion or maintenance activities against a project.

Import project related transactions and perform budget versus actual analysis, and invoice your customer based on the percentage of completion or milestones achieved.

Here are the steps you need to perform:

  1. Run the Update Project Performance Data process to review the committed costs assigned to requisitions, purchase orders, or transfer orders with work order destination on the Manage Committed Costs page.

  2. Import the work orders into Oracle Project Costing using the Import Costs process with the transaction source set as Oracle Fusion Cost management after the transaction is costed and accounted in Oracle Cost Management.

  3. After importing the transactions, you can view them on the Manage Project Costs page when you filter by Document = Manufacturing Work Order or Maintenance Work Orderand Transaction Source = Oracle Fusion Cost Management.

  4. Then, add the Work Order Number, Resource, Inventory Transaction, Resource Transaction, and Resource Instance references as columns via the View menu on the Manage Project Costs page to identify the transaction source.

  5. You can view these references on the Manage Unprocessed Costs and Manage Cost Distribution page .

Project accountants and project managers can open the expenditure item to view the complete transactions details, including the source document. You can perform one or more adjustments on one or multiple expenditure items using the action menu on the Manage Project Costs page. Adjustments you perform in Oracle Project Costing won't be reflected in the source supply chain transaction.

Optionally, you can perform intercompany, burden and cost allocation business functions on expenditures items incurred from supply chain activities. You can also view and adjust these transactions in the Manage Cost Distributions task, and resolve any cost exception using the Manage Unprocessed Costs task.

Considerations for Capturing Manufacturing and Maintenance Work Order Costs in Projects

  • You can't perform reverse type of adjustments for work orders.

  • By default, transaction control validations won't be performed during the Import Costs process, but you can enable work order documents to revalidate transactions during import if required.

  • Project Costing receives the cost of the item as defined in Cost Management.

  • Project Costing doesn't support budgetary control for work orders.

  • Project Costing doesn't support billing by material item and service item.

  • You can't delete a project task that has a work order.

  • You can't move or copy existing tasks or directly create subtasks under a task that has a work order.
