Technote (FAQ)
Question
I am trying to find documentation on the usage of the Financial Cost Management application, specifically the “Is Chargeable” flag.
Answer
The Cost Management application represents the financial entities that will primarily be imported from an external system (e.g. Oracle Financials / Oracle Projects).
The Maximo Cost Management application stores work breakdown structures and summarised project and task costs at the Maximo site level.
The integration process assigns a unique financial control ID to each project and task it adds to Maximo. It also provides project tracking information to Maximo work orders and other transactions, to provide Oracle Projects with complete and accurate data.
The “Is Chargeable” (FINCNTRL.ISCHARGEABLE) field basically indicates whether costs can be collected for this cost entity or not. It is used in the Maximo Cost management application.
Please note, you add and modify projects and tasks in Oracle PA, not in Maximo.
When associating Projects and Tasks with Work Orders. The “Is Chargeable?” check box for the task must be selected, indicating that the task accepts charges.
