In Invoicing Module of TP Projects with the Invoice method as Progressive invoice, When we run session "Create Proress Invoice Specifications" by session tppin1210m000 then Specifications are created along with an Installment.

This installment is created for the TOP ELEMENT only not for the individual ELEMENT, Hence when I Print Final Invoice and Process the Revenue is updated only to the TOP Element and not to the respective Elements as per their progress.

I want to have revenue for Elements as per their progress, Can anyone provide me a solution for this?

Sridhar,

Make sure that in the session Maintain Elements, the element for which you want to register progress and book revenue, needs to have the parameter Progress on Yes. If this parameter is on No, revenue will automatically be posted to the parent-element of the element concerned.

In session Maintain Element Progress (tpppc1150) you can check this. There should be a Y(es) in the column I for those elements that have the above mention Progress parameter in maintain elements on Yes.

I hope this makes it clear. If not, just send me an e-mail with further questions/information.

Good luck,

Jaco

Hi Jaco,

1.The Parameter "Progress" in the Maintain Element is YES
2.Same is also seen at progress level.
3.Field Inst.Invoice[progress] = YES (with other contract details)


I book the progress of the Element for a week, i.e at the end of the week day (date) and run the session "Create Proress Invoice Specifications", This apart from creating Progressive Invoice Specs , also creates an Installment for BUDGET TOP ELEMENT for an amount which is total of all the elements progress reported before this session is run.
Hence when I Print Invoice & Process Transaction, the Revenue is reported only to the BUDGET TOP ELEMENT in Project Monitoring.

If u can give me UR mail ID I will send the screen dumps for more clarity, as the issue is urgent, pl take pain to reply early.

Thanks and Regds

Sridhar,

You can mail me at jaco.van.peperstraten@cmg.nl

Just a quick question: which session do you use for the registration of the progress ???

Regards,

Jaco

Hi Jaco,

for booking the Element Progress I am using " Maintain Element Progress" - tpppc1150m000

** I am using BaaN IVC4
Project Parameter :
Project Budget - Element Budget
Project Control - Activity Budget

Sridhar,

Progress invoicing is only possible when control budget is an Element Budget. This seems strange, as progress relates to activity progress, but this is the way Baan deals with it.

So have a try with Project Control on elements, and it should work.

Good luck and regards,

Jaco
