Syntax

SI.PROJECTESTIMATEAMOUNT(Connection, Project, EstimateId, TaskId, CostTypeId, ItemId, WorkflowType, IncludeChildDimensionBalances, EffectiveDate)



Parameters


The SI.PROJECTESTIMATEAMOUNT function uses the following parameters (please see the article on Filtering Techniques for Velixo Functions for how to include multiple values in a parameter):


Parameter

Required/Optional

Description

Connection

Required

The name of the connection as configured in the Connection Manager

Project

Required

The ID of one or more projects containing the estimate wanted

EstimateID

Optional

The ID of one or more estimates for which the amount value is wanted.

If left blank, the Primary estimate is used.

TaskID

Optional

The ID of one or more tasks to be used to filter the results.

If left blank, estimates for all tasks will be included.

CostTypeID

Optional

The ID of one or more Cost Types to be used to filter the results

If left blank, estimates for all Cost Types will be included.

ItemId

Optional

The ID of one or more Items to be used to filter the results

If left blank, estimates for all Items will be included.

Workflow TypeOptionalThe workflow types to be included in the results.

Allowed values:
  • (for Original)
  • (for Revision)
  • (for Forecast)
  • (for Approved change)
  • (for Pending change)
  • T (for Other)


Values can be combined. For example if "APT" is used, then values for Approved change, Pending change and Other Workflow types will be returned.

Include Child Dimension BalancesOptional

True 

or

False (Default)


Determines if (for dimensions which have child dimensions) the balances of child dimensions are included in the calculation of the total balance.


This parameter only affects balances if:

  • the Location argument is defined and/or
  • other dimensions are specified in the Dimensions or UserDefinedDimensions parameters.

This parameter performs similarly to the Include subdimensions checkbox in Sage Intacct's stock reports such as Account Balances:

Effective DateOptionalA date or a reference to a date cell.
If specified, the latest Estimate ID entries that applies as of this Effective Date for any specified Workflow Type
If left blank:
  • the latest Estimate ID entries for any specified Workflow Type (other than O: Original) will be returned
  • the Original estimate of the Primary Estimate ID will be used if Workflow Type isn't specified.



  

Examples

Example 1 - filtered by project (job) and a single task

=SI.PROJECTESTIMATEAMOUNT("Sage", "20-005",,"G01-040")

Description

Returns the amount for the primary estimate for task number G01-040 in project 20-005

 

Result

(cell references have been used for some parameters in this example)

 

 


Example 2 - filtered by estimate, project, and multiple tasks

=SI.PROJECTESTIMATEAMOUNT("Sage", "20-005","100",C5#)

Description

Returns the amount for estimate 100 for all tasks displayed by the function in cell C5 for project 20-005

 

Result

(cell references have been used for some parameters in this example)



Example 3 - Latest Forecast estimate for a project as of 01/01/2024

SI.PROJECTESTIMATEAMOUNT("Sage", "20-005,,,,,"F",, "01/01/2024")

Description

Returns the total forecasted (Workflow type = "Forecast") project estimate for project: 22-005 with entries' effective date prior to January 1st, 2024.
