Creating Daily Burdens in Job Costing and General Ledger

Why is it Useful?

CMiC has enhanced US Payroll with the ability to charge calculated burdens back to a job on a daily basis when a timesheet gets posted to the job. The proportionate amount of burden for that day is charged to the job for that day. In the event a pay period crosses several months, this feature would be useful because individual months could be selected and posted separately, as payroll posting would post the timesheet based on the daily timesheet entries instead of posting the entire payroll to one posting date.

NOTE: This feature was released in Patch 16 under Issue 21.49171.

How Does it Work?

A new checkbox has been added to the General tab of the Payroll Control screen. The new 'Posted Based on Daily Timesheet' checkbox is hidden by default and will need to be added using Lite Editor. The checkbox will be enabled when the Job Summary By field on this same tab is set to "Timesheet". When this checkbox is checked, if a timesheet is posted to a job on a daily basis, calculated burdens will be charged back to the job each day.
