Units Complete
Units Complete; standard Treeview path: CMiC Field > Site Management > Units Complete
This screen does not have any link/association with the Daily Journal. However, the total units complete will be impacted by the units entered in Job Costing (Units Complete menu), Daily Journal, and this Units Complete screen.
Security will need to be assigned in both the Assign Programs and Assign Menu Items screens before it can be made available to users. Custom menus will require updating using the Menu Maintenance screen.
Auto-numbering can be set for the Units Complete No field. For more details, please refer to Masks and Auto-Numbering.
General – Tab
The General tab is similar to the General tab in the Daily Journal screen and has its own separate set of freeform classifiers that are only associated with the Units Complete screen. The classifiers are defined in the System module’s Free Form Fields screen.
Copying Previous Quantity
The screen also has the [Copy Previous Record] button which allows the user to copy all phases existing in the previous units complete record (by default, or record to be copied can be selected from an LOV) and the General tab information.
Units Complete – Tab
The Units Complete tab is used to track a job’s completed units. Phases are selected and then units completed against those phases can be tracked for the day.
Selecting Phases
Phases are selected using the [Select Phases] button on this tab. The [Select Phases] button is available in View mode and is enabled for “EMPTY” and “UNPOSTED” daily journal records. Clicking on this button launches a pop-up window where multiple phases can be selected and added to the screen.
Phases are commonly unit or productivity based, but if the associated project control (defaults) checkbox is checked to include amounts, then phases for amount type are included.
NOTE: When selecting phases, if there are more than 50 phases and the user presses the [Select All] button, a warning message will be issued to indicate that performance could be compromised.
When selecting the phases via the pop-up window launched by the [Select Phases] button, there is an ‘Include Sub-Jobs’ checkbox. This is available when the ‘Retrieve All Phases’ box is checked. There is also a drop-down box provided to select a budget method: Unrestricted, Restrict to "PU" Budget Method, Restrict to "A" Budget Method.
Once the phases have been added to the screen, click the [Edit] button to put the screen in Edit mode so additional details can be entered.
A Delete icon () will be displayed against each of the phases if the user has the required field security.
The tab displays the job code (as there could be sub-jobs associated to the job on the project), the phase code, phase name, phase WM, linked PCIs, today’s quantity, and the phase units to date.
Today's Quantity
Enter a value for the current quantity of units complete.
Phase to Date
Drilldown is available on the Phase to Date column field, which will open a window displaying the transaction details, as shown in the screenshot above.

Posting Units
The posting of the units will automatically create a JC batch number and post all the units entered.
The posting of units completed is not restricted to financial period dates and does not consider period open/close. The units entered are posted to the date entered in the header.
Once records get posted, all records where no quantity was entered for a phase will be removed after posting. A message will be displayed informing the user of this:
Calculations
Forecasted Projected Qty = Budgeted Units (phase level)
Original Estimate Qty = Budgeted Units (at the time the job is started)
and remains unchanged throughout the life of the job.
When the [Post Units] button is selected, if the value of Today’s Qty + Phase to Date exceeds the Forecasted Projected Qty, then a warning appears:
If the [OK] button is selected the posting process is carried through. If the [Cancel] button is selected, the posting process is cancelled, and the record remains in the Units Complete tab (View mode).
