This document discusses expenditure implementation in Oracle Grants Accounting. It covers defining accounting periods, expenditure definitions, labor costing setup, and implementation listing reports. Key steps include setting up accounting periods, expenditure categories and types, labor costing rules and rate schedules, and running reports to document the implementation setup.

1. Expenditure Implementation

2. Objectives
– Define Accounting Periods
– Explain what occurs during cost processing
– Explain setup steps for defining expenditures
– Define labor costing setup steps
– Describe content of implementation listing reports

3. Agenda
– Accounting Periods
– Period Processing
– Expenditure Definition
– Labor Costing

4. Overview of Periods
Time
PA Periods
Period Type: Weekly
For example, your PA periods may be shorter than
your GL periods.
GL Periods
Period Type: Monthly
JAN-07 FEB-07

11. Transaction Accounting Methods
• You can use one of the following methods to
maintain accounting periods and derive
accounting dates in Oracle Grants Accounting:
– Period-End Date Accounting
– Expenditure Item Date Accounting
– Expenditure Item Date Accounting with Common
Accounting Periods

12. Period End Date Accounting
PA period = SEP-07
PA date = 30-SEP-2007
GL period = SEP-07
GL date = 30-SEP-2007
Transaction
Expenditure item date = 08-SEP-2007
1. Derive
GL date
2. Derive GL date
from PA date
Period Date Range and Status
SEP-07 = 01-SEP-07 to 30-SEP-07
PA period
SEP-07 = Open
GL period (In Oracle GL)
SEP-07 = Open

13. Expenditure Item Date Accounting
PA period = SEP-07
PA date = 08-SEP-2007
GL period = SEP-07
GL date = 08-SEP-2007
Transaction
Expenditure item date = 08-SEP-2007Derive PA

SEP-07 = 01-SEP-07 - 30-SEP-07
GL period for
project transactions
SEP-07 = Open
GL period
(In Oracle GL)
SEP-07 = Open

14. Expenditure Item Date Accounting
with Common Accounting Periods
GL period = OCT-07
GL date = 01-OCT-2007
PA period = OCT-07
PA date = 01-OCT-2007
Transaction
Expenditure item date = 08-SEP-2007
1. Derive
GL date
2. Copy PA date
from GL date
Note: The GL period SEP-07 is closed for project transactions
GL Period (In Oracle GL)
SEP-07 = Open
OCT-07 = Future
GL period for project
transactions & PA Period
SEP-07 = Closed
OCT-07 = Open
Period Date Range and Status
SEP-07 = 01-SEP-07 to 30-SEP-07
OCT-07 = 01-OCT-07 to 31-OCT-07

15. Sweeping Transaction Accounting
Events
SEP-07 OCT-07
Sweep
During period-end closing, you can run the program PRC:
Sweep Transaction Accounting Events to move unaccounted
accounting events to the next open GL period.

17. Expenditures Implementation Steps
Steps for Defining Expenditures Required or Optional
Define expenditure categories Required
Define revenue categories Required
Define units Required
Define expenditure types Required
Define non-labor resources Required
Define transaction sources Optional
Implement transaction control extension Optional
Implement autoapproval extension Optional

18. Expenditure Categories
Each expenditure type is assigned a single
expenditure category
Expenditure Category
Expenditure Type(s) Professional Clerical
Labor
Example:

19. Define Revenue Categories
Each expenditure type and each event type
is assigned a single revenue category.
Revenue Category
Expenditure Type(s)
Event Type(s) Professional Clerical
Labor Revenue
Example:

20. Define Units
You can define other units,
such as Kilometers or Cases
Oracle Grants Accounting
predefines the units Currency
and Hours

21. Expenditure Type Classes

Validate that the project status allows
new transactions
Validate that the task is chargeable
Validate transaction controls at task
and project levels
Call the transaction control extension
Validate Transaction
Standard
Validation
The transaction control extension is called during expenditure entry
and during transaction import.

Method
Oracle Grants Accounting can determine labor costs by using
hourly cost rates or the labor costing extension.

33. Rate Schedules
