Transaction / Detail Enquiries

This option gives you the ability to configure the display of the job costing transaction enquiries available for each job record. On selection of this option you are able to set the authority levels for access to each transaction enquiry.

Blanking the authority level disables that particular transaction enquiry option otherwise set as appropriate (remember values are from 0-9 where 0 is the highest and 9 is the lowest authority level). After setting the appropriate levels you can then configure the display items for these options.

Transactions / Details

LIFO

Set to display stock transactions in LIFO – last in first out – order. If set then you should ensure that the job costing transaction data item JOB-CODE is a secondary index.

DATE

Transactions are usually displayed based on the order they were entered, setting this option sorts the details into date order – either FIFO or LIFO based on setting of the prompt above.

List Items

Here you can select up to eight items to be displayed when selecting the TRANS option from the Job Costing Ledger Enquiry.

If Premier, after confirming the list items you are given the option to design a full-screen enquiry display for the job costing transaction.

Sales (Order) Details

NB: If displaying sales order details then the JOB-CODE on the order detail database must be a secondary index.

Cost Analysis

Display Items

Items 1, 2 and 3 allow you to nominate items for display from the job file in the job totals footer screen that is displayed when performing the analysis enquiry (the cost category pop-ups will overlay much of the job card display so these options allow you to nominate a few important items to display).
