POET
POET refers to:

Project Number Organization (Expenditure) Expenditure Type

Task Number
Date (Expenditure) All project cost needs to have POET information. This may be entered manually by user (in Payables, Purchasing, Projects) or may be derived automatically by Oracle (in Inventory, WIP).

Accounted vs. Unaccounted Cost

In Projects context, Accounted costs means costs for which accounting entry is already recorded in General Ledger (GL). Therefore, accounting will not be generated in Projects module. Accounting Entry will be generated in Projects for Unaccounted transactions and transferred to GL. This will be done using SubLedger Accounting in 12i.

Sources of Project Cost

Following are the main sources of project cost collection:
Payables: Accounted supplier invoices with POET information will be interfaced to Projects. Purchasing: POs and Requisitions will be interfaced as Commitments to Projects. When AP invoice is interfaced, requisition will be removed. Expense Reports: iExpense allows entry of Project related expense reports. Once reports are imported as invoice, these can be interfaced to Projects. Inventory and WIP: Accounted manufacturing cost will be interfaced if Project Manufacturing is used. WebADI: Accounted or Unaccounted costs can be uploaded directly into Projects using WebADI. Manual Exp Batch: Unaccounted pre-approved manual expenditure batches can be entered in Projects. Burden Cost: Cost collected as above can further be loaded with markup in Projects. This will create accounting for additional markup cost.

Supplier Invoice Cost Collection

Program PRC: Interface Supplier Costs needs to be run to collect costs from Payables.

Job Bill Rates: Standard hourly bill rates assigned by job title. For example, all System Administrators can have one bill rate, while all Consultants can have a different bill rate. NonLabor Bill Rates: Standard bill rates or standard markups assigned to nonlabor expenditure type or nonlabor resources.

Bill offset days are used only during mass invoice generation. Invoice Currency: The invoice currency selected for the project customer.

Invoice Generation
You can generate an invoice for a single project, or for all projects having potential invoices
For a single project, run PRC: Generate Draft Invoice process
Submit the PRC: Generate Draft Invoices for a Range of Projects in the Submit Request window to run multiple invoice generation processes in parallel.

When you generate an invoice, Oracle Projects first select projects, tasks, and their associated events and expenditure items that are eligible for billing Oracle Projects next creates invoice items for billing events, revenue events, and for expenditure items based on invoice formats defined for labor and nonlabor items. When Oracle Projects creates invoice items, it also searches for available funding for each invoice item.
