Navigate to the Project Manufacturing Parameters window.
Optionally, select Enable Project References check box.
This enables Project References for the organization. You can associate project number and, optionally, task numbers with various supply and demand entities in the organization.
Optionally check Allow Cross Project Issues check box.
Check this box to allow cross project issues for projects belonging to the same planning in the inventory organization, and to allow cross unit issues based on Warehouse Management picking rules in a Warehouse Management organization.
Allow Cross Project Issues enables you to issue material from one Project or Task to another Project or Task during Component Issue/Return to a discrete job or repetitive schedule or flow schedule. The two projects should belong to the same planning group but can be from different cost groups.
If no planning group is defined for the organization, Allow Cross Project Issues will allow material issues between all projects and tasks for the organization. Note that should both projects have no planning group associated, the projects are considered as belonging to same planning group.
Optionally check Allow Cross Unit Number Issues check box.
Check this box to allow cross unit number issues for projects belonging to the same planning in the inventory organization, and to allow cross unit issues based on Warehouse Management picking rules in a Warehouse Management organization.
Optionally check Allow Cross Project Pick Wave Allocation check box.
Check this box to allow Cross Project Sales Order Pick Wave Allocation based on WMS Picking Rules if using WMS Org.
Select the Cost Group Option. You can designate your cost group by project or by inventory. This should be set to Project if you want to use Project cost group based accounting. This should be set to inventory if you want to use cost group accounting based on inventory. Recommended setting for PJM Orgs using Oracle Projects for Cost Collection is "Project".
Select the control level for the inventory organization: project or task.
If you enable Project References and choose the Project Control Level, you can associate projects and, optionally, tasks with the supply and demand entities.
If you enable Project References and choose the Task Control Level, you must associate tasks when you associate a project with supply and demand entities.
Optionally, select a Common Project.
Select a project which has been defined in Oracle Projects. If you do not use Oracle Projects, you do not need to perform this setup.
Selecting a common project enables you to track the cost of manufacturing transactions that are not associated with a specific project. This enables you to budget for common costs and to view commitments and actual, and budgeted costs for your common project on the standard Project Status Inquiry. You can set up a different Common Project for each inventory organization.
When you run the Cost Collector, the Common Project value set up on the PJM Organization Parameters window is assigned to all transactions related to common items. The common cost group cost of each item is used for common transactions. Tasks are assigned for common project transactions based on the Task Auto Assignment Rules for the common project. See: Setup for Common Project in Task Auto Assignment.
Select a Material task if you selected a common project.
This field is available only if Work in Process is installed, and Cost Collection is enabled for the current organization This rule becomes the default Material rule in the Task Auto Assignment rules window.
Enter a Resource task if you selected a common project.
This field is available only if Work in Process is installed, and Cost Collection is enabled for the current organization This rules becomes the default Resource rule in the Task Auto Assignment rules window.
Select a WIP Material task if you selected a common project.
This field is available only if Work in Process is installed, and Cost Collection is enabled for the current organization. This rule becomes the default WIP Material rule in the Task Auto Assignment rules window.

Navigate to the PJM Organization Parameters window and select the Costing tab region.
Optionally select the WIP Person Resource as Straight Time checkbox. Checking this box allows you to transfer WIP Resource employee transactions to Oracle Projects as WIP Straight Time. If you select this option, you can include WIP Straight Time hours in Oracle Projects' summarization of hours for billing calculations. You can use Oracle Projects Burden Schedules to apply overhead to WIP Straight Time transactions.
Choose your GL Posting Option. The choices are Manufacturing and Projects. This should be set to Projects if you want to use Oracle Projects as the single source for posting all transactions (manufacturing and non manufacturing) to the General Ledger. When you select the option to post the General Ledger in Oracle Projects, you can use Projects Burden Schedules to apply overhead to Project Manufacturing transactions. If you select this option and continue to apply overhead in Manufacturing, the overhead amount will be imported into Projects as raw (not burdened) cost.
If you selected Projects as your GL Posting Option, you must select an Account Option If you set this to Use AutoAccounting, All accounts are derived using the accounting rules engine in Oracle Projects. Inventory transactions are transferred to Projects as Inventory with No Accounts and WIP transactions are transferred as WIP with No Accounts. If you set this option to Send Accounts to PA - Cost Group and WIP Accounting Class valuation accounts are transferred to Projects. Inventory transactions are transferred to Projects as Inventory with Accounts and WIP transactions are transferred as WIP with Accounts.
Select your PJM Clearing Account. You must set an account as the PJM Clearing account when using the AutoAccounting. The PJM clearing account is used for balancing debit or credit when the user performs project transfer transactions.
