How to post a Journal to a job
Assign Receipts and Journals directly to the WIP and Advance Billing GL accounts. These transactions will be reflected in all of the system job-based reports.
Steps:
- Create a Journal as usual with one of the line items allocated to either your WIP or Advance Billing Control Account.
- Select a Job No on the line entry.
- Select a Task Type Code on the line entry.
- Click SAVE
- Click POST.
On the Job Reports (all reports under the JOBS menu) – if you have a separate WIP & Advance Billing GL control account structure (which we highly recommend as best practice), then:
- Journals coded to the Advance Billing Account will reflect as Billings on these reports, and Journals coded to the WIP Account will reflect as supplier costs
- If you do not have a separate Advance Billing Account, then all journals coded to these accounts will reflect as Supplier Costs
