| # Business Partner by Project (tppdm6101s000) Use this session to maintain data on the business partners for whom a project is executed. In Project, the business partner currency rate is used for all invoice transactions. The rate default is retrieved from the invoice-to business partner. Contract amounts If you work with sub contract amounts, the business partner amount is aggregated from the sub amounts. Each amount is displayed in the currency of the business partner. The business partner currency rate is also used together with its exchange rate type, to calculate the contract amounts in the project currency for use in Monitoring. However, for internal project calculations (costs), the project currency entered in the Projects (tppdm6500m000) session is used. The amount approved for invoicing is displayed next to the Ceiling check box. For Unit Rate invoicing method, the amount is updated while transferring transactions from the PIN module to LN Central Invoicing. For Cost Plus invoicing method, the amount gets updated when the transactions are approved for invoicing. If an extension is linked to the project, the amount gets updated in the Extensions (tpptc0110s000) session.
