Labor Cost Distribution- Payroll Cost Imported into Projects Without Accounting from Payroll Module

Summary:

While testing the integration of Payroll costs into Oracle Projects using Labor Cost Distribution, we observed some unexpected behavior.

Scenario Tested:

• We ran the payroll process for an employee.
• Completed the Create Accounting process in Payroll.
• Imported the payroll cost into Projects using the “Import Payroll Costs” process.

Issue Observed:

• For the imported payroll cost, no accounting was available from the Payroll module.
• In Projects, under Labor Cost Distribution, the cost came without any accounting information.
• Since our Project Costing rules didn’t have an account mapping for this scenario, the system picked up a default account code combination
