labor code for which to enter historical labor.

When you enter the

Period
|
Select the period for which you are entering historical labor.
DPS adds all fiscal period/year records together to calculate the total for all records with the same
labor code or
account.
The choices in the drop-down list are:
-
Prior to current year: Select this option to enter
job-to-date labor incurred on this
project prior to the current fiscal year. If you do not enter a period for a regular
project,
DPS uses this selection as the default.
-
Current year: If you install
DPS at mid-year and you want to enter historical labor for the periods in the current year, select this option. If you do not enter a period for an overhead
project,
DPS uses this selection as the default.
You can enter any fiscal period/year combination in this field. If you do,
DPS displays the entry in the drop-down list for this session only. In other words, if you create a new file or you exit this file and then re-open it, the periods that you entered no longer display as options in the drop-down list.
You cannot specify a future date in this field. If you attempt to do so,
DPS displays a message indicating that you must select a period from the list or enter a valid date.
