2.03.05 Receipt of Costs

The receipt mask manages all documents in the system. In principle, all costs for the documents and which an employee has caused can exist here, be entered and assigned to a project. This also includes receipts that belong to travel and/or travel costs. The receipts can be assigned by selecting an already entered trip and are displayed in the document category Trips with their corresponding cost element. By entering the net amount and the sales tax, the total amount is calculated (or by entering the gross amount the corresponding net amount). You can also specify the cost element and the document date.

The mask consists of the following elements:

• Basic Information:
  • Description: This alphanumeric field identifies the document. As in the example, this field can also use a collection with predefined document types.
  • Type of Cost: This field indicates the cost element of the document. The cost elements can be defined and changed in the cost type mask. If a receipt is flagged with the cost element travel expenses or other costs and is assigned to a trip, the net amount of this receipt is also displayed in the Trip mask in the flagged cost element. The cost element is also used as a criterion for the plan/actual comparison in billing evaluation.
  • Employee: In this field the employee who entered the receipt is selected. By default, this field is filled with the employee name who logged on to the system. Employees can be managed in the mask employees.
  • Project: The Project field indicates the project to which the document is to be assigned. Projects can be defined and changed in the project mask.
  • Date: This field describes the date of the documents. This entry is automatically preset with the current date by the system.
  • Note: This field allows you to enter remarks about the document.

• Costs:
  • Net Amount: This field defines the net amount of the document. If you enter the gross amount and the sales tax, the system calculates this value automatically.
