Scheduling Date Synchronization Settings (STO Accounting) 

 

This setting in WMS determines if the baseline, projected, and actual scheduling dates that are calculated in the Scheduling module will update the dates in Sage Timberline® Office Job Cost. The dates are treated by Job Cost as follows:

 

Baseline date in WMS = the estimated date in Job Cost

Projected date in WMS = the revised date in Job Cost

Actual date in WMS = the actual date in Job Cost

 

Note that the dates that are pushed to Job Cost are not the scheduling activity dates, rather the "grand total" dates for the job.

 

In order for this setting to work (i.e., in order for dates from WMS to go to Job Cost), it is also necessary to have the Master Job Synchronization setting on the Integration > Accounting > Accounting Integration Settings> Synchronization tab setting selected:
