Job Field Report Entry - Fields

 

Job Field Report Entry

Job No.

Enter the job number representing the job for which you want to enter completion status information, or click the Lookup button to list all job numbers. If the Define Job Statuses Allowed in Entry check box is selected in Job Cost Options, the system checks to see if the status of the job number entered is allowed in Job Status Maintenance.

If you enter a job number with a status that is not allowed, a message appears. If the appropriate security is set up in Role Maintenance, you can click Yes to enter the job number. If the appropriate security is not set up, you can click Yes to override security with a logon ID and password. In both cases, if you click No, the job number is removed from this field.

If completion status information has been previously entered for the job number but has not yet been updated to the Job file, the information originally recorded is displayed and can be modified.

Click the Memo button to display and/or maintain job memos. The Job Memo task is available only if Yes or Maintain is selected in the Allow Job Memo Inquiry from Data Entry field in Job Cost Options.

For reference, the total estimated units and the job-to-date units posted to date are displayed in the status bar.
