Capital Planning Entry

The Capital Planning Entry module allows you to create projects. The screen is divided into two sections: the header area and the detail section. The header section contains the project and site information. The detail section contains the detailed project item information.

Header Section:

Project #

  • Enter a unique project number. If Purchase Requisition Profile Option #1 -"Automatic Numbering" is set to Y and you enter a blank project number, the word Automatic will be displayed, and the cursor will move to the site field. The automatic number created will start with 'CP'.

  • If automatic numbering is not enabled, a blank entry will exit the program.

Site #

  • Enter a valid site number. Purchase Requisition Profile Option #2 - 'Use ATS Location Database' controls the type of validation to be done. If the profile is set to Y the program will validate against the atrieveTendering location database. Otherwise, it will validate against vendor numbers in the vendor file. The default location will be determined by Purchase Requisition Profile #3 'Default location'.

Site Name

  • Enter the name of the site where the Capital Project will occur.

Year

  • Enter the year of this project.

Project Type

  • Enter the project type.

Start

  • Enter the start date of the project. The default will be the current date.

End

  • Enter the end date of the project.

Maximum

  • Enter the maximum spending limit for the entire project. This field is mandatory if requisition profile option - 'Requisition maximum enforced' is set to Y.

  • Once entering detail lines, you cannot modify this field to be less than the current requisition total. This field must be positive.

Detail:

  • For Capital Projects, the quantity must always be '1'. A blank entry will return control to the menu bar.

  • Enforced" is set to Y, the extended amount of the detail line (quantity X price) added to the current requisition total will be checked to see if it exceeds the maximum spending.
