Foreign Employee (Labor) Types
You probably will not use the same labor types for all companies in your enterprise. To allow for the possibility that Company A may reference an labor type that Company B does not use, you must specify the direct and indirect accounts that DPS should use to process timesheets or labor adjustments that reference "foreign" labor types.
Enter the intercompany account numbers in the Foreign Employee Type (Labor) Posting Accounts grid in .
Example
Company A has three labor types:
- E: Employee
- M: Management
- P: Principal
Company B has only one labor type:
- E: Employee
William Apple, an employee of Company A, submits a timesheet on which he charges time to Project 2019, a direct project, which belongs to Company B. William Apple has a labor type of P (Principal), which has not been specified for Company B. In terms of intercompany transactions, William Apple has a foreign labor type.
When processing William Apple's timesheet, DPS uses the intercompany account number specified in the Direct Account field in the Foreign Employee Type (Labor) Posting Accounts grid in .
