Labor Costing Extensions
Labor costing extensions allow you to derive raw cost amounts for individual labor transactions. Some examples of labor costing extensions you may define are:
- Standard cost rate by job
- Multiple cost rates per employee
You can use labor costing extensions to implement unique costing methods other than the standard method, which calculates raw cost using the number of hours multiplied by the employee's hourly cost rate. For example, you may want to calculate the raw cost using a capped labor rate for specific employees.
Processing
Oracle Projects processes labor costing extensions during labor cost distribution before calculating standard raw cost amounts. If Oracle Projects encounters a labor costing extension that derives the raw cost amount of a labor transaction, it skips the standard raw cost calculation section for that transaction.
