Dates for Project and Resource Management
For project and resource management control, Oracle Projects maintains the date the transaction was incurred and the expenditure period in which the transaction date falls.
These dates are defined as follows:
Expenditure Item Date
The expenditure item date is the date upon which work was incurred. This date falls between the start date and end date of an expenditure period. For example, if you submit an expense report that includes an expenditure item for air travel incurred on 15-MAR-96, the expenditure item date is 15-MAR-96.
Expenditure Ending Date
The expenditure ending date is the end date of a weekly expenditure period. For example, if you submit a timecard for labor hours worked during the week of 20-MAR-96, the expenditure ending date is 20-MAR-96.
Note: The expenditure periods usually correspond to the expenditure entry cycle of timecard and expense report entry.
Oracle Projects supports weekly expenditure periods. You specify the day of the week for the Expenditure Cycle Start Day in the Implementation Options window.
