Adjusting Transactions between Jobs

If costs have been entered to the wrong job, the easiest way to transfer them to the correct job once they have been paid is to do a “Disbursement Entry” which is a journal adding costs to one job and taking it out the other.

In Job Costing we have a function ‘Disbursement Entry’ to make cost adjustments to a job where necessary. See below for detail or alternatively you could process a negative Job AP invoice to the incorrect job and a positive invoice to the correct job then match those 2 transactions in the Supplier Enquiry screen.

1.   In the Job Costing Module select Transactions/Disbursement Entry
