Next Computer Supplied Job Code

Set the start for the System supplied Job numbering sequence. When this is 0 or Blank, jobs won't be automatically assigned a Job Code.

Note: If using computer supplied Job Codes it is recommended to start from a suitable large number e.g. 100001 so alphabetic and numeric sorting of Job Codes will match.

ModePricing Mode

Determines the unit Sell Price calculation, and the way calculations are driven when cost prices are changed.

  • Selling Price - When you enter estimates or transactions where a Product code is entered, the Selling Price from IC is loaded to the Selling Price. The Selling Price will be determined by the customer's Price code for the job. When cost prices change, the Sell Price is preserved, and the Markup is back calculated (Default).
  • Markup - The markup percentage will be taken from the product based on the job's Price code. When cost prices change, the Markup is preserved, and the Sell Price is re-calculated.
  • Markup and Discount - The markup percentage will be taken from the product based on the job's Price Code. The Discount% is taken from the Discount Schedule for the Job and Product Discount codes, and will reduce the Markup. This is the same result as if you keyed the Markup% then Discount Percent. When cost prices change, the Markup and discount are preserved, and the Sell Price is re-calculated.
  • None - No Selling Price or markup is loaded, you must key the data manually.

Note: For Special Pricing to apply in Job Costing the Pricing mode must be set to Selling Price.

Work In Progress Basis

Specify how Work In Progress is recovered:

  • Cost - (Default). WIP is calculated as Actual Cost Value less Invoiced Cost Value.
  • Sell - WIP is calculated as Actual Cost Value less Invoiced Sales Value.

Using Sell Basis means WIP will reduce faster but when a Job is completed the net result is the same, remaining WIP is cleared.

Changing the Work In Progress Basis re-calculates work in progress for active jobs as at the current period. The change in WIP occurs in the current period and will transfer to GL. The Work In Progress Basis for JC for the period is recorded as part of the End of Period.
