When costs are incurred in Oracle Manufacturing that are related to a project, the Cost Collector process in Oracle Cost Management passes those costs to Oracle Projects. The Cost Collector finds all costed transactions in Manufacturing that have a project reference and passes the referenced transaction costs to the correct project, task, and expenditure type in Oracle Projects. Oracle Projects imports the costs using the Transaction Import process.
Suggestion: If you integrate with Oracle Manufacturing, use function security to prevent users from entering pre-approved batch items with an expenditure type class of Inventory or Work in Process.
Transactions imported into Oracle Projects from Oracle Project Manufacturing with transaction source Inventory Misc. can be adjusted in Oracle Projects. All other transactions must be adjusted in Oracle Project Manufacturing.
