Use the Calculate ACRN Bills screen to calculate your ACRN bills, using information you have set up on the Manage ACRN Bills screen and the standard bill amounts from the Calculate Standard Bills screen.

See the "Set Up Other Screens Before Executing Calculate ACRN Bills" topic.

After you have calculated ACRN bills, you can review them on the Manage ACRN Bills screen or the Print ACRN Billing Edit Report.

Calculate ACRN bills after posting all transactions for the period to be billed and running the Calculate Standard Bills application.

Access to this screen is controlled by the Enable ACRN Billing check box on the Configure Billing Settings screen. If this check box is selected, users with the appropriate rights can calculate ACRN bills for active ACRN projects set up on the Manage ACRN Bills screen.

Use of the Calculate ACRN Bills screen is not mandatory, but is beneficial to government contractors subject to Government Requirement, DFARS 204.71 Uniform Contract Line Item Numbering, specifically, the standard payment instructions at PGI 204.7108(d)(1) through (6). This requirement places an obligation upon contractors to invoice at a Contract, Contract Line (CLIN), Subcontract Line (SLIN), Exhibit Line, or an Accounting Classification Reference Number (ACRN) level.
