Action

Further Information

Before updating your PS Cloud Core Analytics app, ensure that the Integration User has view access for the Revenue Management Template object and read access for the Actuals Template field on the following objects:

  • Expense
  • Milestone
  • Miscellaneous Adjustment
  • Project
  • Timecard Split
Note:

This is an unmanaged field in your org. Depending on how your org is set up, the field might have a different label, for example Recognition Template or Revenue Management Template. By default, the API name of the field is ffrrtemplate__c. This is defined in the Actuals Template field on the Revenue Management Settings custom setting.

Note:

Depending on how you recognize revenue and amortize cost, the Actuals Template field might not be used or even available on all the objects listed above. You only need to provide the Integration User with access to the fields that are used in your org. For example, if you recognize revenue exclusively at the project level, you can only provide access for the field on the Project object.
