Overview

Use the Daily Overhead Allocation Register to perform automatic calculation of daily overhead and to provide an audit report of all overhead transactions generated.

The report shows daily overhead costs calculated for each job detailed by cost type, based on the overhead rate specified in Overhead Rate Maintenance. Information detailed includes the job number, source code (AP, PR, etc.), cost code, cost type, cost amount, overhead rate, overhead amount, and general ledger posting accounts. The report total reflects the total cost and overhead amounts for all the jobs on the report.

Daily Overhead Allocation Register is available only if Daily is selected in the Apply Overhead on a Daily or Monthly Basis field in the Job Cost Options window. If Monthly is selected in this field, you must print the Monthly Overhead Allocation Register to calculate overhead amounts.

This task can also be accessed at the completion of any data entry process that generates Job Cost transactions (for example, Job Posting Entry/Register, Accounts Payable Invoice Register/Update, and Payroll Check Register/Update).

Review the Daily Overhead Allocation Register for accuracy. If there are errors, select Overhead Rate Maintenance from the Job Cost Setup menu, make the necessary changes, print the Daily Overhead Allocation Register, and proceed with the update.

Warning Do not, under any circumstances, interrupt the update process.

During the update process, calculated overhead amounts are posted to the Daily Transaction file to include on the Daily Transaction Register.
