WO-H  Enter Misc/Extra Costs

Purpose of Program

If you are using the Estimating module, you can include miscellaneous or extra costs in your estimate.  Miscellaneous costs pertain to specific routing sequences and are often used to for tooling charges.  Extra costs are tied to the estimate as a whole, not to specific routing sequences, and can accommodate charges such as engineering, letter of credit fees, etc.

Use this program to enter actual miscellaneous or extra charges for comparison to estimated extra charges in JC-A  Print Job Cost Report.

Default values for the Extra Cost GL Acct and the Misc Cost GL Acct are set up in AD-A  General Ledger Defaults.

General Program Operation

Enter the work order number or select one from a pop-up window by pressing the F2 key (or clicking on the Lookup button).  Enter either a miscellaneous cost and description or an extra cost and description.

A default General Ledger account code (set up in AD-A  General Ledger Defaults) will display.  You may accept the account code or override it.

Processing

When the record is saved, the cost will be posted to the miscellaneous or extra cost file and to the work order file.

If GL posting is switched on in SD-H  Inventory Defaults, the Work-in-Process GL account of the work order parent item number will be debited, and the Miscellaneous or Extra Cost GL account will be credited.
