After entering the cost information on the 4-2 Payable Invoice screen, a separate screen appears for posting to cost codes, and the pull down window lists ALL cost codes in the system.
PLEASE INCORPORATE THE JOB COST SCREEN IN THE SAME 4-2 GRID TO ELIMINATE HAVING TO REENTER ALL OF THE INFORMATION (If using several cost costs, this means reentering several lines of information, and possibly making an error.)
Currently it's too easy to mis-code costs, then reports don't make sense. In order to enter correctly, you now have to switch back and forth between budget screen and each individual subcontract screen.
-The cost codes selection should be limited to the code in the job budget and not allow posting to codes that are not in the budget.
-When a subcontract is selected int he "Subcontract" window, the cost code selection should be limited to the codes on that subcontract only, and not allow posting to cost codes outside of the subcontract.

Agreed with the integrated job cost window. Voted. Similar to your idea are these ones, where a TON of things would get fixed by including part numbers in the job cost table. I think if you vote on these, it will increase the likelihood that this idea will also get implemented:

Thank you Ryan for your reply (is there a way to get flagged when a reply is posted to a suggestions?!) I've been asking for this and several other items for nearly 15 years ....
Such a waste of time to have to enter invoice then have to do it again for the job cost. Need Job # and cost codes on 4-2 Payable Invoice.
Right?! Sometimes a subcontractor invoice will hit 10 or more cost codes in one invoice. If the subcontract is set up like this, the 4-2 invoice has to be entered (10 or more lines worth) on the 4-2 grid, and then again on the job cost grid. As the grid is not set up the same, the user cannot even copy and paste it. I waste soooooo much time with this every single month.
PLEASE let us know if you are looking into this change.
