Prior Year Costs Subtask

Use this subtask to enter historical transactions for Cobra projects. The data in the table window are used for inception-to-date calculations.

Note: Although the Employee, Vendor, Vendor Employee, PLC, GLC, Direct Amount, and Direct Hours fields are editable, you must not change the value in these fields if they were inserted into this table by the Update Prior Year History process. The Update Prior Year History process updates this table with data from the Cobra Summary (CB_SUM) and Cobra Burden Summary (CB_BURD_SUM) tables. The data in the Cobra Summary and Cobra Burden Summary tables are derived from original transaction data. There are no audit trails available for any changes made to the data in these fields.
