JOB COST
Staying on top of things isn't always easy. There are overhead
costs to keep track of, bids to prepare, and revenues to record.
OPEN SYSTEMS® Accounting Software (OSAS) Job Cost application
can help you stay informed and organized. You'll get all the
information you need to maintain profitability by calculating
variances between actual and estimated costs and revenues.
Schedule and control
in-process and completed jobs; make a difference in your bottom
line
You'll know the status of a job, how much it's estimated to
cost, what it actually costs, the billing status, and the gross
profit. You can adjust estimated or actual period-to-date,
month-to-date, or job-to-date costs. The costs may include labor
dollars, material or equipment costs, overhead, and
miscellaneous expenses.
You can produce timely reports that help you analyze costs
more closely; you'll bid accurately on future jobs because
you'll have all the details of similar jobs you've done in the
past. You can also determine which jobs and contracts are
completed at a glance by producing an up-to-date job list.

OSAS Job Cost Offers Choices and
Flexibility With These Key Features:
 |
You can customize Job Cost for your business with 999
user-definable cost code fields per job/phase,
categorized by 99 cost types. |
|
Base overhead allocation on labor hours, labor dollars,
material cost, or on any of the 99 cost types that you
can define. |
|
You'll get extensive, detailed information about
employees, purchases, and billing when you post from
OSAS Payroll and Accounts Payable/Purchase Order to Job
Cost. You'll have better control and scheduling of
in-process and completed jobs with Cost Detail History.
|
|
Creating new jobs/phases is easy with a copy feature
that copies estimate information from an existing
job/phase. |
|
You'll have a detailed audit trail with the Job/Phase
Adjustments function. You can enter costs as you incur
them and billings as you invoice and update start and
finish dates. If Job Cost is interfaced with other OSAS
applications, these fields are updated when you post.
|
|
Accounts Receivable/Sales Order operation will be
efficient, with the ability to track the unbilled cost
in the Jobs File. |
|
A job template can be created and printed. It will aid
you in preparing new bids. |
|
You won't have any trouble tracking job information. A
40-character description field, a 21-character contract
number, job address, and three user-defined fields are
provided. You can also track a work in process and
finished goods account for each job/phase record. Job
comments are available as well. |
|
Track pieces, invoice billed amount, total cost, and
cost billed with the period-to-date and year-to-date
columns found in the Jobs and Phases screen. You can
also view the job-to-date unbilled cost. |
|
The Unit Cost Analysis Report gives you a picture of
what percent of a job is completed, based on units
rather than cost. |
|
You can print posted transactions, unposted
transactions, or both with the Cost Detail Report and
Billing Detail Report. |
|
The Work-in-Process Report provides the following
information by job/phase: earned income, current profit
earned, earned profit at completion, and estimated cost
to complete the job. |

Periodic Processing function, as well as the Post
