Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Finance & Operations Enterprise Edition – On Account Project Statements
On account project statement is a list of un-invoiced transactions posted on a project.
In both, Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 and Dynamics 365, On account invoicing is only available for external project types. The functionality is used when a project invoice is generated for either a milestone completed (in both, Time and material and Fixed-price projects) or when a billing is not related to specific costs (Time and material project).
One of the Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (US GAAP) is recognizing revenue based on the percentage complete.
Fixed-price projects
For example, the total cost of a Fixed-price project is $100K with the billing based on percentage complete as 30/30/30/10% where the last 10% is paid at completion. Then 4 invoices will be entered as On-account transactions on the project with the corresponding amount and different dates.
Dates might be entered as forecast dates or later, at the time of milestone, or left blank.
Time and material projects
When dealing with Time and material (T&M) projects, the customer may elect to set up a billing schedule for the duration of the project.
The final invoice will include the on-account payments, offsets to those payments, and actual transactions on the project.
