Muli regions allow Users to group project, people and organisations by a 2-coded process. By default in Australia the first character represents the State and the second the sub-region of the state. AA - representing "All Areas" would apply to organisations that supply country wide services - such as Insurance. -
221 Timesheet Note
This note provides a facility for the employee and/or the manager to pass special pay information / questions to the Payperson. It always starts empty for a payrun.

223 Currency
Each database operates in a single currency. Where an order is not in the database currency, then at settlement the transaction is brought back to local currency as the basis for producing the goal accounts. Each country has a defined currency that at a point in time has a given exchange rate with the currencies of another country. All orders and payments need to include the clear definition of the exchange rate. - 223 Note Qualifications

- 240 Contract - Head Contract Type- individual head contract name is displayed in the background to determine: L = Lump Sum Progress Claim C = CostPlus Progress Claim W = Contract Value equals V = Invoice Project (Contract Value = Invoiced) O = Overhead (Sundry Invoice)
-
241 Accounts Control
Invoiced (V) - Used where the contract value is not pre-targeted (Cost+) or Agreed Lump Sum and only sundry invoices or Minor Works AR may be raised on the project defined in this way. As part of the Trial Balance process, the revised contract value is updated to the value of Accounts Receivable invoices raised.
Complementary (M) - Where a Cost+ project is created, it is normal to create its Complementary partner. The complementary partner may be consecutive project no. or where a construction managed project is in a different company/profit centre, then the same suffix would generally be used.
Project Lump Sum (L) - When a client has agreed to a Lump Sum contract value, the revised contract value may be changed by obtaining an approved variation and will invoice the client using a lump sum progress claim.
Project Cost Based (C) - Where a contract has been entered into where the risk of costs being different to budget remains with the client. Muli still expects a budget to be developed to enable proper client reporting using the Cost Based Progress Claim. Even with Cost Based project changes to scope, should be managed with variations for changes in Scope of Works.
There should be no project contribution (9980) in a cost based project but agreed margins would be handled by journal between the cost based project and its associated complementary project (M).
Most cost based projects will require a complementary project to be associated to manage the items in the contract for which the contractor assumes risk.
Minor Works Job (J) - Allows for logical operation for managing small short duration jobs such as Repair & Maintenance or factory management of small jobs. This concept allows all allocations between 2001 and 7998 to be used as standalone projects with all income and expense relating to the job occurring within the one allocation.
Where the facility is used to manage a number of small jobs but requires some starting expense, then normal preliminary allocations are available for normal use, ie Site Sheds, Area Supervision; Phones, etc. Each of these smaller jobs has its own master record (10.1) which defines basic information and control.
Sales & Inventory (Future) - Provides an accounting management interface for the processing and reporting of the various defined sales and stock management processes.
Asset & Equipment (Future) - Provides the accounting management interface for processing and reporting the various defined income and expense categories.
Responsibility Overhead ® - This is a special type of project used to control Branch/Profit Centre overheads, generally uses allocations 1800 to 1898.
General Ledger - There is a general ledger project raised for each company one per financial year. All general ledgers may only exist in Profit Centre Z. Allocations 0001 - 0998 are only available for a general ledger project with all accounts allocated to the Profit & Loss or Balance Sheet by its sequence number. -
242 The Project Status Control
Active (A) - All projects start out in this condition allowing full functionality.
Budgets Frozen (B) - Once management establishes the project budget, it is “frozen” stopping the project team from moving money around to hide real variances.
(P) - Only in minor jobs - Stops the creation of new jobs while allowing the completion of already entered jobs.
(O) - No more Orders (or Amendments) - Stops the raising of new orders or amendments to orders, thus when managers review a completed project and agree all costs have been identified and committed, the placing of the S flag Stops project cost creep. May be reversed by senior management when a verifiable reason is obtained.
Completed (F) = Finished - When management and the project team agree that the project is completed, the F flag is applied. Muli, in the background verify that the Revised Contract Value = Invoiced to Client = Received from Client = Project Paid (which includes project contribution taken). The F flag cannot be set until the accounting transactions are adjusted to meet the above test.
Completed ( C ) - This may only be set by Muli as part of the general ledger process and only for projects that have been previously manually set as F. Once a project is set as C, the last transaction date is changed to the current period end date.
Hidden (H) - Once a project has been completed, then management may change its status to H which stops all but a few selected people being able to look at the details.
Deleted (D) - Not yet supported. When all transactions are removed from a project. -
243 Accounts Control - This is the combination of 241 and 242 and is applied to each project as an internal control of the way accounting processes are applied and depending on the stage of the project, what is allowed to occur.
For example
V = Invoice - Income is determined by the value of invoices raised
G = General Ledger
T = Template Project (no orders)
Accounts management is the combination of 241 - Accounts Control 242 - Project Status - 244 Project Feature
-
245 Project (Status Code 245) - The allowable codes are set by Muli to provide a project based transaction control. Codes include:
- S = Stopped
- C = Completed
No further controls ???
- 245 Project Type Source
- 247 Stage - With Version N we introduced project stages that enable Users to define a project by logical areas such as floors, external works, prestart and close off. This stage facility provides an automatic grouping for modules such as Module 11 Subcontractor Claim break-up and Scheduling.

271 Role
Depending on the business, there are a number of Roles required to ensure projects are completed to meet corporate goals. Each of these identified roles should be established in Code 271 and the relevant provider may be linked to the project. -
272 Signoff Level
Where a RPC is established, each RPC is given authority to sign (authorise activities or verify actions) at various levels. - 280 Description (Note)
- 281 Payment Terms - Default Payment Terms are part of teh Supplier's Static Details and each time a Purchase Order or Subcontract is raised then these default terms can be overriden if required.
- 282 Retention - In construction, it is normal for contract conditions to include a retention clause, ie retain 10% until 5% of (adjusted) contract value is retained from progress claims and this is reduced to 5% at practical completion, and the final money is repaid after the defect liability is complete.
- 283 Expense Grouping - Expenses can be grouped and reported upon using a 2-character code from the Muli 283 code table. Examples where thi scould be useful include grouping togetrher R&D expenses.
- 285 Expense Type
- 288 Approval
- 291 Other Type
