Cost Allocations from

Once a Job has been created, it can be linked to a quotation, once the quote has been accepted by a customer.

The Job would also be linked to the relevant Customer Account as well. Costs can be allocated to the Job in a number of ways, including:

Source Processing

Costs can be allocated to a Job at the same time a source document is created.  This includes when stock is added to a Supplier Purchase Order. The Purchase Order will automatically prompt you whether a stock item added to a Purchase Order needs to be allocated to a Job.  At this stage your buyer will be able to select the correct Job number to which the stock needs to be allocated.  As soon as the Supplier Invoice/Delivery Note arrives, the stock will be automatically checked-in and then automatically allocated to the Job.

Stock

Alternately, if your business carries a large amount of inventory in a stockroom, you may wish to have your store-man issue stock to a Job through a Stock Journal Entry. This effectively ‘pushes’ stock onto a Job Card, according to what is required.  If a bulk amount of stock is issued, for example grease in the context of a car service, the unused grease following the completion of the Job can be receipted back into stock via a similar journal entry.

Outwork/buy-outs

In the event that your business is required to involve the services of another business in a particular Job, such as when a fabricator requires the services of a galvanizer, these expenses may be allocated to the Job via the Non-Stock Tab, by linking a Supplier Invoice to the Job.

Sundry

The same is true if your business incurs once-off petty-cash expenses when they are delivering/installing the product of the Job, for example.  These can be made via a Cash-Book entry and allocated to the Job in question and will also appear under the Expenses Tab.

Labour

Lastly, Labour can also be allocated to a Job.  You are able to create different Labour Categories within Omni Accounts Inventory Control Module, configuring the relevant selling and cost prices of each.  You are then able to configure Employee Profiles for each of your employees, which can then be linked to their respective labour category.

At the close of work each day, your costing department will be able to issue the respective number of hours worked by each Labour Category to the Job via a Stock Journal Entry.

    Andries S Janse van Vuuren Lyttelton

  • Omni Accounts is one well-made South African product. Succinct, yet so comprehensive. The software itself answers some of the somewhat confusing questions I posed in class in Johannesburg.

    Tsimi Thulo MBT Accounting Services (Bloemfontein)

  • I wish to take this opportunity of informing the manager/supervisor of the excellent service I received. If assistance is going to be the way of my experience, then I have made up my mind to be purchasing this package.
