Reference: Causes of Labor Cost Summary Reversals
Workday reverses or recalculates labor cost summaries if you retroactively change a
configuration or time entry.
Workday reverses labor cost summaries when:
- You retroactively add or delete a time block in a summarized period.
- You change a configuration for labor cost summaries.
- You retroactively change a time block in a summarized period.
- Example: You change a worktag or the quantity of time.
- You change the project, project company currency, or worker company currency.
- Worker company currency only applies when you've selectedCompany from Workeron theSet Up Project Labor Cost Summary Configurationtask.
When you're using advanced project labor costing, Workday recalculates labor cost
summaries when:
- You retroactively add or delete a time block in a summarized period.
- You change a worker's job profile as of the end date of the scheduled advanced labor cost job recurrence.
- Example: A worker changes jobs on 2023-1-15. You schedule the advanced labor cost job forWeekly Recurrence, and you schedule a labor cost summary forMonthly Recurrence. On your next labor cost summary, Workday uses the new job profile that's active on 2023-1-15 to summarize the first week of January, because it's the job profile active on 2023-1-31, the date Workday creates the summary.
- You change the time calculation type.
- You terminate a worker as of the end date of a scheduled labor cost summary.
- Example: You terminate a worker on 2023-1-15. You schedule the advanced labor cost job forWeekly Recurrenceand you schedule labor cost summaries forMonthly Recurrence. On your next labor cost summary, Workday creates a labor cost summary for the first week of January. All time blocks entered after this will be zero rated, because Workday evaluates scheduled hours as of the last day of the scheduled advanced labor cost job.
