Data Flow from Project Manufacturing WIP cost for Project to Project Accounting and General Ledger

Hi

We are in EBS R12 using Project Accounting, Project Manufacturing, Purchasing Module (including iProcurement), and Core Financials.

We are using WIP Job with project details.

The cost gets into Project Accounting once the WIP job is completed and the background costing Process and interface to PA is run. The Business users have mentioned that the cost from WIP to General Ledger doesn't hit the GL until the shipment is done for the WIP Job.

So, we may have a typical scenario where the WIP job is completed (NOT SHIPPED), and as part of standard functionality, the Project Cost is reflecting WIP Job Cost, but if the reconciliation is done between cost on the Project visible in Project Accounting and General Ledger, they don't reconcile, because the GL is not hit with WIP job cost until the Shipping is not done.
