The following activities take place as part of the expenditures process flow for labor costs:
1. Run the process PRC: Distribute Labor Costs. This process calculates the raw and burden cost
components for labor cost expenditure items. It also uses AutoAccounting to determine the default
debit account for each expenditure item.
2. Run the process PRC: Generate Cost Accounting Events. This process uses AutoAccounting to
determine the default credit account for each expenditure item. It also generates accounting events
for distributed transactions. You can optionally select Labor Cost as the process category to limit the
process to labor costs.
3. Run the process PRC: Create Accounting. This process creates subledger journal entries for eligible
accounting events. You can run the process in either draft or final mode. You can optionally select
Labor Cost as the process category to limit the process to labor cost accounting events. Optionally,
the process can post journal entries in Oracle General Ledger.
If you define your own detailed accounting rules in Oracle Subledger Accounting, then Oracle
Subledger Accounting overwrites default accounts, or individual segments of accounts, that Oracle
Projects derives using AutoAccounting.
4. Run the process PRC: Transfer Journal Entries to GL. When you run the process PRC: Create
Accounting, if you select No for the parameter Transfer to GL, then you run the process PRC: Transfer
Journal Entries to GL to transfer the final subledger journal entries from Oracle Subledger Accounting
to Oracle General Ledger. You can optionally select Labor Cost as the process category to limit the
process to labor cost accounting events. Optionally, the process can post journal entries in Oracle
General Ledger.
5. Run Journal Import in Oracle General Ledger. (optional) This process brings the final accounting
entries from Oracle Subledger Accounting into Oracle General Ledger.
