Enter, or click to select, the task start date. This defaults from the Charge Line Start Date but can be edited.

Enter, or click to select, the task end date. This defaults from the Charge Line End Date but can be edited.

Enter, or click to select, a valid vendor employee ID that is linked to the vendor specified on the work assignment. The vendor employee must be active and approved to be eligible for selection.

This field displays the vendor employee name.

Enter a description for this vendor employee. This defaults from the PO line resource, if it exists, but can be edited. This is a user-defined description of the resource.

Enter, or click to select, the name of the vendor employee's manager.

This field displays the vendor employee status (Active or Inactive).

This field defaults to Pending if approvals are required as set on the Configure Subcontractor Management Settings screen, or to Approved and disabled if approvals are not required. You can edit this field if you are eligible to approve charge lines or work assignments. The other approval statuses are Inactive, Rejected, and Removed from workforce.

If the work assignment status is changed to Approved, the vendor employee approval status is changed to Approved and can be edited.

If a vendor employee is removed from the project vendor employee workforce, the user will receive a warning message that the project/vendor employee is linked to a work assignment. If the user deletes the record, the approval status on the work assignment for that vendor employee will be changed to Removed from workforce. This approval status cannot be assigned to a vendor employee within the work assignment screen.

If the charge line approval status is Pending or Approved, the vendor employee approval status will default to Pending or Approved, respectively, but can be changed at the vendor employee level.

This field displays the vendor employee line inactive date and is populated by Costpoint when the approval status for the work assignment vendor employee line is set to Closed.

This field displays the name of the employee approving the vendor employee.

Enter, or click to select, a valid general labor category (GLC) for this vendor employee. This field defaults from the PO line resource, if it exists, but can be edited.

When you click the Auto Load Workforce button and the GLC is linked to the project labor category (PLC), that GLC is inserted. If no GLC is specified on the work assignment charge line or in this field, the default GLC from the vendor employee is inserted. If there is more than one record on the Vendor Employee Labor Information and History, Costpoint gets the GLC where the work assignment vendor employees start and end dates are within the Vendor Employee Labor Information and History effective start and end dates.

This field displays the GLC description.

Enter, or click to select, a valid PLC for this vendor employee. This defaults from the PO line resource, if it exists, but can be edited.

When you click the Auto Load Workforce button, this field may be populated. If no PLC exists, the PLC defaults from the work assignment charge line if a resource ID exists; otherwise, the default PLC from the Vendor Employee record is used. If there is more than one record in Vendor Employee Labor Information and History, Costpoint gets the PLC where the work assignment vendor employees start and end dates are within the Vendor Employee Labor Information and History effective start and end dates.

This field displays the PLC description.

Enter the number of hours to be charged. This defaults from the PO line resource, if it exists, but can be edited.

Enter the rate to be charged.

By default, this field displays the Rate value on the Charges subtask, if specified, or the Hourly Rate value on the Resources subtask of Manage Purchase Orders, if it exists. Otherwise, Costpoint uses the PO Line Unit Cost if one exists or the default rate from the Vendor Employee record. If there is more than one record in Vendor Employee Labor Information and History, Costpoint uses the rate where the work assignment vendor employee start and end dates are within the Labor Information and History effective start and end dates. Otherwise, this field displays no default.

For a two-way match, if you enter a rate that is different from the rate on the charge line, the rate on the charge line will be deleted.

For a three-way match, the rate is required on the charge line and will default on all lines on this subtask and cannot be changed.

For all match types, the rate is required at the time the vendor employee is approved if Charge Type on the charge line is Labor or Expense.

Also note the following guidelines on editing this field:

• Three- or two-way match items should allow individual vendor employee rates to be changed if the specific vendor employee has not been included in an invoice (either posted or unposted).
• Three- or two-way match items should not allow vendor employee rates to be changed if the vendor employee has been included in an invoice for that line item (either posted or unposted).
• All new vendor employees added to a PO line item should allow rate changes, as they have not yet been included in an invoice (either posted or unposted).
• If a vendor employee was included in an invoice but the invoice was deleted, and that was the only invoice the vendor employee was included, the rate can still be modified.

Enter the amount to be charged. If you do not enter an amount, Costpoint calculates this as Hours multiplied by Rate.

Enter the city for this vendor employee. By default, this field displays the City on the Resources subtask of Manage Purchase Orders but can be edited.

Enter, or click to select, the state. By default, this field displays the State/Province on the Resources subtask of Manage Purchase Orders but can be edited.

Enter, or click to select, the country. By default, this field displays the Country on the Resources subtask of Manage Purchase Orders but can be edited.

Enter a reason for rejecting the vendor employee line.
