To restrict access in the Project Financial Management work area to the specific projects in which an employee is assigned as a team member, the two default project roles that are appropriate are Project Manager and Project Team Member. These roles are directly involved in the project and would need specific access to the projects they are assigned to. Roles like Project Accountant and Project Billing Specialist are more specialized and generally have broader access across multiple projects for financial oversight.
In this scenario, two invoices are created because there are separate bill plans for each contract line, even though they are under the same contract. Additionally, the bill set number drives the grouping of transactions, meaning that despite being under the same contract, the different bill set numbers will result in separate invoices.
When invoices have an invoice date in the open project accounting and closed accounting periods, certain rules must be followed to maintain consistency. The project accounting date gets adjusted to the first day of the first open project accounting period to ensure it falls within the open periods, aligning financial reporting correctly for project accounting. Similarly, the accounting date is changed to the first day of the first open accounting period to ensure it does not align with a closed period, maintaining the integrity of financial records.
The project has a total budget of $5000 for five months, which means $1000 per month. The first month's actual expense is $800 with an additional commitment of $600, totaling $1400. This leaves $3600 for the remaining four months. Dividing this amount by the four remaining months results in an Estimate-To-Complete (ETC) amount of $900 per month.
