Posting Miscellaneous Job Costs

Overview

It is possible to send random (non-PO-related) costs to a job using the AP > Job Costing > Misc tab.   This will affect the Total Job Costs, and Total Profits, and GPM of the job.

Prerequisites

  1. The AP payable is entered as usual but must be coded to a Purchases type GL account.   *** Only APs that post to a Purchases (cost) type of GL can be tied back to a job number as a Miscellaneous Cost / Additional Transaction.  
  2. The AP must be Accepted (posted) before the AP > Job Costing > Misc tab becomes active.
  3. The target job must be Open.
  4. Version 21b1.20
