Exception costs allow a form to log a survey complete, or a mystery shop complete directly to a project.
 
This logging means one of purchases or logs can be directly associated with a project for billing purposes.
 
 
 
This engine will also include an API to allow add, edit, delete and list capabilities.  This will be delivered through AJAX.

  3. New field Icon added to Summary details to allow for pictorial display of Projects in selection screens
  4. Communication takes settings related to notifications in and out for the project.
  5. Assignment and Historic maintained for backward module compatibilities with the Task management module


1.1.2 Costing

The time tracker engine is being expanded to support the application of costs against the various units logged.


The solution will allow three primary data additions to be done per time tracker entry.

  • Unit cost
  • Sales price
  • Margin


The billable flag will also be used for tracking sales price. The engine will also accommodate confirmation / approval, to sense check numbers before reporting.


The costing will allow group to specific unit cost application. Costs for

  • By Time Unit (1 hour, 30 mins, etc)
  • By Project (Different rates per unit by project are possible)
  • By Day (By day allows weekend and bank holiday rates to be applied)
  • By Work Type (allows different rates by different activities)
  • By Staff (allows the rates to be different by resource used)


1.1.3 Project Costs report

The project costs report will have 4 sections and delivered by time period


There will be options on the two preceding options selection pages.

  • Page 1: Time period and project
  • Page 2: Section selection and include costing reporting information


The report itself will be in 6 sections

  • Section 1: Project overview
  • Section 2: Tasks by period
  • Section 3: Time Tracker report
  • Section 4: Expenses report (mileage and subsistence report)
  • Section 5: PO report (for large preapproved purchases)
  • Section 6: Exception costs report


The report will have security to those with project access only. The report generation will be logged in the System Audit log for security reasons.
