MAN01 Standard Codes

Muli uses a series of standard codes to control or quantify system decisions or their status. This approach allows users to fine tune their business processes without costly reprogramming.

MAN02 Organisations & People

Muli only recognises 2 types of identities when considering project roles and responsibilities:

Project roles and responsibilities are stored against Responsible People (RPC) - for both projects and payroll
External Organisations (ORGS)

To enable the processing of transactions, the details of these identities needs to be established.

MAN03 Project Budgets & Variations

Muli requires all work to be performed, including overheads for the year, to be defined as a project.

Each project is then required to have established a budget of the allowed cost and the Risk2Do verification items for the work required. When the client changes the work scope, Muli requires a "variation to contract" to be applied and this needs to be formally approved as part of the project scope management process.

The Budget is equal to the contract value or if internal the board approved budget.

MAN04 Orders Correspondence

"Raising an order = commitment to pay"

Muli is a commitment accounting solution. Managers establish Budgets the sum of which is equal to the contract value or for internal projects, the Board's approved value.

The commitment is by way of:-

MAN05 Accounts Payable - Creditors

This module processes suppliers and subcontractors invoices.

MAN06 Accounts Receivable (Debtors)

Debtors Accounts

In Muli, because of the project focus, Accounts Receivable has a different status to a traditional "widget" business.

Project income is determined by deducting "final project costs" from the Head Contract value with Variation adjustments. So the focus for Accounts Receivable in Muli is on received money and project liquidity.

MAN07 Site and Project Management

Project managers should undertake detailed monthly reviews of all their projects. They need to verify the financial aspects as well as the project activities. In addition, senior management should review the projects to determine their current status.

MAN08 General Ledger

The General Ledger for version "N" is being implemented in two stages.

MAN09 Payroll

Muli Payroll Solutions - Concepts & Terms Used

The fundamental principle to implement Muli Payroll is that the Users understand their interpretation of the various awards and conditions to ensure that the payroll set-up reflects the company's interpretation.

Over time Muli has encountered considerable variation in interpretation and our object is to enable you to manage your own interpretation.

Our comments are provided for guidance but are not guaranteed to be correct to your situation.

MAN10 Small Jobs

The module was introduced to enable small jobs to be managed in a simple fashion. The work could be for an internal workshop operation (Joinery Facility, Plant & Equipment Maintenance and Workshop Facilities) or used with external clients where a range of smaller projects are performed over time - say one year. Conceptually, each allocation from 1001 to 7007 is allocatable to an individual job such as refit unit no.21, repair dozer no.456, transmission overhead, etc.
