2 minute read
Subcontractor usage can be recorded through project journals, time sheets, and expense sheets, with automatic linking to the subcontractor vendor based on the resource setup.
Project Journal Lines
You can use job journals to manually enter subcontractor-related work:
- Open Job Journal.
- Fill in fields like Project No., Project Task No. and select a Resource.
- If the resource has a Subcontractor Vendor No., it will auto-fill on the journal line.
- Post the journal to create Project Ledger Entries with the vendor link.
Tip
You can also set or change the vendor number manually on the journal line.Business Central Time Sheets
When recording time through standard BC time sheets:
- Assign a subcontractor resource on a Project-type time sheet line.
- When posted, the Subcontractor Vendor No. flows into the ledger entry.
Progressus Time Sheets
In Progressus Time Sheets:
- Submit time entries for a subcontractor resource.
- Posting the time sheet creates the ledger entries with the info about the subcontractor.
Progressus Expense Sheets
To track Progressus subcontractor-related expenses:
- Enter expenses for a subcontractor resource in a Progressus Expense Sheet.
- Posting the expense sheet creates the ledger entries with the info about the subcontractor.
Summary
Subcontractor usage entered through journals, time sheets, or expense sheets is automatically linked to the subcontractor vendor using the setup on the resource. This ensures all project costs are properly tracked and attributed to the correct vendor.
