What are jobs?

When you track costs of any type, you must create a job to maintain the costs. This holds true for direct costs, indirect costs, and accrual tracking. Whenever employees enter costs in e-timecard, they must charge to a job.

You create all of your company jobs in the job master. Here are some reasons for creating jobs:

To capture direct costs related to customer-contracted work.
For indirect costs not specific to one customer.
For internal development work such as proposals.
To track accruals for balance sheet items such as vacation.
For budget purposes only.
To track outstanding employee advances.
