Project Manufacturing Integration Setup
Enterprise Asset Management supports a variety of ways to define work breakdown
structures. The methods include, using third party project management systems (with
on-line integration), project templates, Seiban number wizard, copy, and manual entry.
Work breakdown structures are commonly needed for program management. To
support financial project management an reporting, the combination of Oracle Projects
and Oracle Project Manufacturing enables budgeting, project costing and tracking,
project billing, project revenue recognition, project cash forecasting, and project cost
collection, including multi-currency and tax regulations.
To support project supply chain management and execution, Project Manufacturing
provides functionality for project sales management, project advanced supply chain
planning, project procurement, project execution, and project quality management.
The following diagram illustrates the eAM Project Manufacturing process. First, a
maintenance Work Order is linked to a project or task. If a requisition or purchase order
is created for that Work Order, the commitments for the Work Order's associated
project or task are updated. The Project Cost Collector process (See: Project Cost
Collector, Oracle Cost Management User's Guide ) then passes the costs to the Work
Order's associated project WIP accounting class accounts, rather than the WIP
accounting class associated with the eAM asset or eAM organization.
Resources and Material charge against a Work Order. The Work Order is associated
with a Project. The charges are transferred to the Project expenditures via the Cost
Collector process.

Project Definition
Project Definition
You can inquire on an existing, or copy a new project from a template or existing
project. To create a new project, See: Project Definition (Assigning Project
Parameters), Oracle Project Manufacturing User's Guide. Associate this project number
with a planning group, a cost group, and a default WIP accounting class.
To inquire on an existing project
1. Navigate to the Find Projects window.
Find Projects
2. Select a project Number.
3. Choose Find.
4. Choose Open.
Projects, Templates
5. Optionally you can view detailed task information by choosing Detail (See:
Viewing Project Details, Oracle Project Manufacturing User's Guide).
To assign project parameters
1. Navigate to the Project Parameters window.
Project Parameters
2. Select a valid Project Number.
3. Optionally select a Planning Group.
4. Select a Cost Group.
If the current organization has selected Average as its primary costing method in
the Organization Parameters window, the Cost Group field is required. The list of
values includes the Common Cost Group and the user defined cost groups. The
list of user defined cost groups includes those cost groups with valid accounts
and with Project selected in the Cost Group window (See: Project Cost
Groups, Oracle Cost Management User's Guide). You must assign the project to
its own Cost Group to keep weighted average costing at the project level.
Associate a Maintenance type WIP Accounting Class to this Cost Group. See:
Project Cost Groups, Oracle Cost Management User's Guide.
5. Optionally assign a Maintenance WIP Accounting Class to the current project.
You can select any Maintenance type WIP Accounting Class that is associated
with the selected Cost Group.
6. Optionally select the name of the Planning Group with which you want to
associate your project.
If you plan material requirements by a group of projects, rather than by each
individual project, you need to define a planning group and to assign all the
projects to this planning group. If you plan material requirements by a single
project, you do not need to associate the project with any planning group (See:
Defining Planning Group Lookups, Oracle Master Scheduling/MRP and Oracle
Supply Chain Planning User's Guide).
7. Select the Other tab.
8. Select Maintenance from the Direct Item Expenditure Type list of values. This
expenditure type enables the Cost Collector process to pass costs for direct items
to project maintenance work orders.
This is a required step.
9. Save your work.
