Link GLC to Project PLC Subtask
Use this subtask to establish the linkage between the General Labor Categories (GLCs) and Project Labor Categories (PLCs) for a specific project.
You must have assigned the PLC to a project on the Link Project Labor Categories to Projects screen before you can link it here. After you have linked a PLC to a GLC, the PLC displays on the timesheet during timesheet entry. This can streamline the timesheet entry process.
Use this screen whenever PLCs are required and a project work force has not been set up and linked to categories. If PLC tracking is required on a given project, the sequence of edits required to obtain the proper PLC on a timesheet is as follows:
- Costpoint checks the project work force link to PLCs.
- Costpoint checks the GLC link (this screen).
- Costpoint checks the default PLC on the Manage Employee Information screen.
- If no default is found, you must manually enter the PLC on the timesheet.
