Drilling Down into Adjustment Details

When viewing the history of a single cost card from the Invoice Editor, it is sometimes useful to be able to see what other cards were included on the same adjustment and the effect of that adjustment on the invoice as a whole. For adjustments that were made on an invoice, this can be accomplished by double-clicking on an adjustment in the Cost Card History form, which will bring up the Adjustment Detail form for that particular adjustment.

Understanding Adjustment Icons

The Cost Card History form may display one or more icons next to each adjustment. A Key is shown at the bottom of the form to explain the significance for each icon. Note that the color of the text of the entry is also significant on this form.

When adjustments are made, adjusters are given the opportunity to specify an explanation. For example, when rejecting a time card you can specify why it was rejected. That value is shown here. In addition, there may be Projector-generated explanations. These include:

  • Add/Remove from Payment Voucher
  • Add/Remove from Invoice
