Job Cost Transactions - Posting Date

Top  Previous  Next

The Job Cost Transactions - Posting Date report was designed primarily for time and material jobs where it is necessary to capture all actual costs on the job for a specific time period.  Due to the fact that you can post date a transaction (if the system configurations allow it), it is necessary to capture this information based on the actual posting date rather than the transaction (expense) date of the entry.  For example, if you need a report that shows all the new costs on a job since you created your last T & M billing, then print this report from the date that you created the billing (to be sure that no new entries were posted on the same day AFTER you created your billing) through the current date.  Regardless of the invoice or check date of the entry, this report will show all transactions posted to the job for this date range.

 

The total costs on this report consist of Previous Period costs and Current Period costs.  Current period costs are those entries that were posted within the date range selected.  Previous period costs are those costs that have been incurred prior to the starting date range.

 

A second version of this report includes the contract totals and the report is called Job Cost Transactions - Posting Date / Contract Totals.
