Overview

The Monthly Overhead Allocation Register performs automatic calculation of monthly overhead and provides an audit report of all overhead transactions generated.

The register recaps all costs subject to overhead that are posted during the past month by job, by overhead cost code, and by source cost type. The appropriate overhead rate and the calculated overhead amount are shown for each cost type. Totals are provided by job and by report.

The appropriate general ledger account numbers to debit and credit for each overhead posting are also shown.

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

Review the Monthly Overhead Allocation Register to verify that all overhead rates and general ledger account numbers are correct. If there are any errors, click Overhead Rate Maintenance on the Job Cost Setup menu, make the necessary changes, print the Monthly Overhead Allocation Register again, and proceed with the update.

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

Postings from the Monthly Overhead Allocation Register are updated to the general ledger when you update the Daily Transaction Register. Depending on your security setup, either the Daily Transaction Register is automatically printed and updated after you update the Monthly Overhead Allocation Register, or you are prompted to print and update the Daily Transaction Register after updating the Monthly Overhead Allocation Register.
