The Install Company is a required field on the Work Order data entry form of each Job and is used in Job Costing and reporting.
If different settings & G/L accounts are needed at the Job Type level, Job Type settings will override the Install Company & JM Setup Processing settings & G/L accounts.
The Install Company determines:
- Company - The name of the Company that will print on Job Tickets.
- Labor - How Labor will be expensed and which G/L accounts to use when recording timesheets to a job - Expense Immediately or use WIP.
- Material WIP - Which WIP G/L account to use for Materials.
- Misc WIP - Which WIP G/L account to use for Miscellaneous Job expenses. This selection ties into the Job Expense Types that are flagged to use WIP.
- Overhead - Which G/L accounts will be used if applying overhead to Jobs along with the method of the overhead calculation.
