First enter the job code in the usual way. Use the <F4–Select> key if you are not sure of the job code. The name of the job is then displayed for you.
Job Codes per Detail
If entering stock issues for multiple jobs it may be easier to prompt for the job code per detail line rather than entering stock details for one job at a time. Diamond and Premier users have an option available within the Job Costing Application User Facilities to enable the input per stock issue entry line of the job code.
Enter the date to which these stock issues apply. The date entered here is validated as being within the current stock period. If entered prior to the period then a warning will allow you to enter the issue with that date but ‘as at’ the current period (i.e. it updates demand for current period). If entered after the current stock period (up to one period in advance) then a warning asks if you wish to post the stock issue as a forward transaction.
The reference is an optional entry and may be used for any purpose. You may have numbered stock issue sheets which have to be signed when stock is withdrawn, in which case you might enter the sheet number here. This value is copied into all the transactions created from these entries.
