Direct Cost Detail

Job Code

For each line you must enter a valid job code — one that is on the job file, and not yet marked as complete. When you press <Enter> the job description appears at the bottom of the screen. Use the <F4–Select> key if you are not sure of the job code.

Cost Code

Similarly, the cost code must be valid and its title is also shown at the bottom of the screen, together with its category description. You may choose to have just one cost code record for all direct costs. Use the <F4-Select> key if you are not sure of the cost code.

Units

Enter the quantity for this item and press <Enter>.

Rate

The rate shown is taken from the cost code record, but may be overtyped if required.

Value

The program multiplies the units figure by the rate to obtain the value; you may overtype this if necessary.

Comment

Enter a description for the item as required, or leave blank.
