This section describes the types of adjustments you can make to expenditure items. Whether you can adjust expenditure items depends on:

• The project status of the project charged.
• The transaction source (if the expenditure item was imported via Transaction Import).
• Except where noted, you can also adjust project invoice lines.

Correct Approved Expenditure Items
You can correct the following attributes of an approved expenditure item using the Pre–Approved Expenditure Entry windows.
• date
• expenditure type
• project
• task
• amount

• You make the corrections by reversing the original item and then creating a new item using the correct information. You cannot correct these items using the Expenditure Items window.

•  
• You can also change the project and task assignment of an expenditure item by selecting the Transfer adjustment action.
•  
• You cannot correct the amount, date, expenditure type, or supplier of supplier invoice items in Oracle Projects. You must correct these attributes of supplier invoice item in Oracle Payables.
•  
• You must correct expenditure items imported from Oracle Inventory or Oracle Manufacturing in their respective systems. You cannot reverse or correct expenditure items from these applications in Oracle Projects.

Change Billable Status
Use the adjustment actions Billable to Non–Billable and Non–Billable to Billable to change the billable status of an expenditure item.

• A billable item accrues work–based revenue and can be invoiced.
•  A non–billable item does not accrue work–based revenue and is not invoiced.

You may want to check the setup of the billable status of your project to reduce the number of items you need to adjust for billable classification.
You can define tasks as billable or non–billable. You can further specify which items are non–billable using transaction controls.

Change Capitalizable Status
Use the adjustment actions Capitalizable to Non–Capitalizable and Non–Capitalizable to Capitalizable to change the capitalizable status of an expenditure item.
• A capitalizable item can be grouped into an asset line you send to Oracle Assets.
• A non–capitalizable item cannot become an asset cost in Oracle Assets.
You can define tasks as capitalizable or non–capitalizable; you can further specify which items are non–capitalizable using transaction controls.

Set and Release Billing Hold
You can place an expenditure item on billing hold. An item on billing hold is not included on an invoice until you release the billing hold on the item.
One–Time Hold
You can place an expenditure item on one–time billing hold. An item on one–time billing hold is not billed on the current invoice but is eligible for billing on the next invoice. The one–time billing hold is released when you release the current invoice.
Release Hold
If you have placed an expenditure item on billing hold, you use the release hold to take it off hold so the item can be billed.

Recalculate Burden Cost
You can recalculate the burden cost of an expenditure item if you find that the burdened cost amount is incorrect. To produce correct recalculation results, you must correct the source of the problem before
redistributing the items.

Recalculate Raw Cost
You can recalculate the raw cost of an expenditure item if you find that the raw cost amount is incorrect. To produce correct recalculation results, you must correct the source of the problem before redistributing the item.

Recalculate Revenue
You can recalculate revenue if you find that:

• The revenue or bill amount is incorrect due to incorrect bill rate or markup
• AutoAccounting is incorrect :You must correct the source of the problem before redistributing the items.
•  

Recalculate Cost and Revenue
You can recalculate cost and revenue if you find that:

• The raw cost rate is incorrect
• The burden cost multiplier is incorrect
• AutoAccounting is incorrect

You must correct the source of the problem before redistributing the items.

If you recalculate cost, the revenue is automatically adjusted to ensure that revenue that is based on the cost (with markup or labor multipliers) is correct.

Change Work Type
You can change the work type of an item. You can use this adjustment to reclassify an item for reporting and billing purposes.

Change Comment
You can edit the expenditure comment of an item. You can use this adjustment to make the expenditure comment clearer if you are including the comment on an invoice backup report.

Split Item
You can split an item into two items so that you can process the two resulting split items differently. The resulting split items are charged to the same project and task as the original item.
For example, you may have an item for 10 hours, of which you want 6 hours to be billable and 4 hours to be non–billable. You would split the item of 10 hours into two items of 6 hours and 4 hours, marking the 6 hours as billable and 4 hours as non–billable.

Transfer Item
You can transfer an item from one project and task to another project and task.
Oracle Projects provides security as to which employees can transfer items between projects. Cross–project users can transfer to all projects.
Key members can transfer to projects to which they are assigned.
Oracle Projects performs a standard validation on all transferred items.
For a description of the standard validation process and resulting rejection reasons,  Oracle Projects also ensures that you only transfer items which pass the charge controls of the project and task to which you are transferring. If the items you are transferring do not pass the new project and task’s charge controls, then you cannot transfer the item.

Change Currency Attributes
You can change the functional or project currency attributes of multi–currency transactions. When you select Change Functional Currency Attributes or Change Project Currency Attributes from the Reports menu, a window is displayed where you can enter changes in the following fields:

• Rate Type
• Rate Date
• Exchange Rate

The windows display the project or functional currency, depending on which currency you have selected, as well as the transaction currency. The same conditions apply to changes in currency attributes that apply during transaction entry.
You can also change currency attributes for an expenditure using the Mass Adjustments feature. When you select Change Functional Currency Attributes or Change Project Currency Attributes under Mass Adjustments, most of the validations are performed by the costing program.
Note: If the project currency and the functional currency for an expenditure item are the same, only the Function Currency Attributes option is displayed on the Reports menu. Any changes you make to the functional currency attribute are copied to the project currency attributes.
