When you create a Job in the Job Cost Module from the Sales Order Module, it should update the Original Contract amount in Job Maintenance.

For example, you create a Sales Order in the Sales Order module. You then create a Job from the Sales Order Module to the Job Cost module. It creates the Job with the Customer, but the amount is zero for the Job. There should be an option to update the Original Contract amount with the total of the Sales Order.

Right now, it creates the Job, but then you have to go to the Job and then enter the Original Contract amount in Job Maintenance for the Job Cost module. It should also show the Sales Order number that create the Job as a cross reference.

Making this change makes the program more intuitive and saves on steps.
