Mark Job as Completed

This option allows you to change the job status. The status may take any of the following codes:

A Active job, the normal situation

C Completed job. This implies that there are no more costs to apply to this job, but that not all the invoices have yet been raised.

I Fully Invoiced. This status denotes a job which is now history — there are no more costs to apply, and the customer has been fully invoiced. You can only delete a job when it has been marked with an ‘I’ status.

T Time Stop. This status, only available when configured in the system profiles, allows you to prevent the posting of timesheet transactions against the job but allows other costs to continue to be posted.

Enter the job-code of the job whose status you wish to change. The standard job maintenance screen is displayed and you are prompted to change the status.

You should change the status code to C if the job has been completed but not yet fully invoiced and to I if the job has also been fully invoiced. Only jobs marked I may be deleted elsewhere in the program. You may change the status back to A if you have marked it as C inadvertently. Setting the status to T prevents the entry of timesheet transactions to the job but allows other costs to continue to be processed. Press <Enter> when your entry is correct, and then <Escape> to return to the maintain job menu.
