Use this subtask to establish the linkage between the General Labor Categories (GLCs) and Project Labor Categories (PLCs) for a specific project. You must have assigned the PLC to a project on the Link Project Labor Categories to Projects screen before you can link it here. After you have linked a PLC to a GLC, the PLC displays on the timesheet during timesheet entry. This can streamline the timesheet entry process.
Use this screen whenever PLCs are required and a project work force has not been set up and linked to categories. If PLC tracking is required on a given project, the sequence of edits required to obtain the proper PLC on a timesheet is as follows:
Costpoint checks the project work force link to PLCs.
Costpoint checks the GLC link (this screen).
Costpoint checks the default PLC on the Manage Employee Information screen.
If no default is found, you must manually enter the PLC on the timesheet.
This non-editable column displays all of the GLCs from the General Labor Category table window.
This non-editable column displays the description of each GLC displayed.
After you have highlighted PLCs and GLCs to be linked in their respective tables, click this button to move them to the Selected Project/General Labor Categories table window.
Click this button to remove any selected Project/General Labor Categories from the Selected Project/General Labor Categories table window. This unlinks the highlighted PLC/GLC combination(s) for the selected project.
This column displays all of the selected PLCs that are linked with GLCs. You can link one PLC to multiple GLCs; however, you cannot link more than one PLC to a GLC.
