We have to complete a weekly labor transfer to allocation labor to our sister company.
Would love the job cost screen to have the option to enter hours & employee number so that we could do this journal entry in 1 entry.
Currently we have to post the journal transaction & then go into EACH record in menu 6-3 & enter the hours & the employee

  • Good morning. Our office is having the same issues. We pull total labor ours in order to get an accurate production rate in the field. The only solution is to use the 6-2 Job Cost screen after we enter a payable in the 4-2 screen.

    Here is how we do it.
    Post the payable in screen 4-2
    Open the 6-3 Job Cost Screen and scroll to the last entry. This should be the payable entry you just made.
    Look in the bottom half of this screen. There is a tab called "employee/vendor/equipment".
    Enter the Hours associated with the temp. labor.

    It's a work around, but there is no place in the payables 4-2 entry screen to get this data where it belongs.

    It would be so helpful if when we enter the payable in 4-2 and then select the Job Cost screen that we are permitted to enter hours. This would alleviate having to open a third screen (6-3) to complete the entry.
