HCM Assignment Status Validations When Importing Person-Related Costs

By default, Project Costing doesn't allow you to import a person-related project cost transaction if the person's HCM assignment status on the date of the project cost is Inactive or Suspended.

If you want to import project costs associated with persons whose work relationships have recently been terminated, use the Allow Cost Transactions Until Certain Days After Person Termination (ORA_PJC_ALLOW_COSTS_UNTIL_DAYS_AFTER_PERS_TERM) administrator profile option to specify the number of days after the termination date during which Project Costing will accept project cost transactions associated with terminated persons.

Note: This setting is applicable only for work relationship termination cases, and doesn't apply to suspended assignments or assignments that naturally ended without a termination.

However, if you want to skip HCM assignment status validations altogether when you import person-related project cost transactions from specific transaction source documents, select the Allow transactions for inactive or suspended person assignments option associated with that document.

For example, a person's HR assignment can be suspended, but the person can still be eligible for payroll processing. If you're using Labor Distribution to distribute payroll costs to projects, then the payroll costs incurred for the person's suspended HR assignment will be rejected during processing, as the assignment is not active as of the project cost dates. But if you want to allow these transactions, enable the Allow transactions for inactive or suspended person assignments in the Labor Distribution project transaction source document.

If you feel this ability must be enabled for specific transaction source documents, reach out to your project application administrator.
Note:
  • Time and Labor doesn't transfer hours to Project Costing if they are reported on days after a person's termination date even if you allow transactions for inactive or suspended person assignments for the Oracle Fusion Time and Labor Time Card document.
  • The Allow transactions for inactive or suspended person assignments document option takes precedence over the Allow Cost Transactions Until Certain Days After Person Termination (ORA_PJC_ALLOW_COSTS_UNTIL_DAYS_AFTER_PERS_TERM) administrator profile option, if you have enabled both.
  • When you enable the Allow transactions for inactive or suspended person assignments document option, the status of a person's assignment is not validated. However Project Costing still requires an HR assignment as of the transaction date for a person-related project cost.
