Crystal Report - Daily Material/Other Timesheet

Project Management

Resolution/Fix/Answer

Use the Crystal Daily Material/Other Timesheet report to provide frequent listings of material and other (not labor or equipment) amounts that will eventually be billed for cost plus contracts. This provides substantiation for job cost entered through the accounts payable module or general journal entries.

At the end of each shift or day, you can give the report to the owner, who then reviews and approves the cost incurred. This provides your client with their cost (i.e., your cost plus the applicable markup).

Notes:

  • The customer who requested this report calls it an Approval Document.
  • The owner does not remit funds due to this report, since this report and process generate no accounting entries or billings.

Prerequisite

  • A cost plus contract line item exists for billing materials.
  • The Calculate Customer Cost process completed prior to running this report.
  • A PENTA user (optionally) used the Calculate Customer Cost window to initiate PENTA’s process that prepares the data. Refer to the Calculate Customer Cost Window Description for information. This process does the following:
  • Applies the appropriate billing markup or billing rates to calculate the billable cost incurred during the period.
  • Creates a new Timesheet for all billable costs not previously included on a timesheet. Timesheets contain costs as follows:
  • Equipment Timesheet, costs are entered on the Equipment timecard.
  • Labor Timesheet, costs are entered on the Labor timecard.
  • Material/Other Timesheet, costs are entered on the (AP) Invoice and Credit Memo Entry window, (AP) Manual Payment Entry window, and Journal Entry and Distribution.
