Job Cost Module

GAAP’s Job Cost module continues with the established tradition of performance and flexibility.  Define jobs YOUR way – to as many levels as you require.  Track budget variances and commitments at multiple levels with the ability to provide forecasting report at your fingertips.  The automatic, real time interface to GAAP’s General Ledger, Purchasing/Receiving, Accounts payable and Payroll modules, coupled with the on-screen reporting and analysis capabilities provide the Job Cost module with the capability to give management instant cost accounting information. Features include:

• Capability to process Job, Phase, Sub-Phase, Category and Cost Type levels, using the AIA Master Format or user defined level codes.

• Reporting at any of the above levels on a summary, sub-total, or detail audit trail basis.

• Report across Job lines for specified Phases, Sub-Phases, etc.

• Automatic interface from the rest of the entire GAAP family; no need for summary reports just to obtain balance entries for your manual ledger system, Your spread sheet software or your work processor. As transactions are posted throughout GAAP, they automatically accumulate at the appropriate job level, immediately ready for processing and reporting.

• Period-to-date, Year-to-date and Job Inception-to-date reporting

• Allocation of overhead cost according to user-defined parameters, with automatic account distribution to the General Ledger

• Ability to post directly to a given Job or between selected Jobs for budget and cost transfers, with selective update to the General Ledger

• Change Orders recorded, tracked and reported separately and on demand

• The built-in Report Generator allows you to produce free-form Job Cost reports with up to 15 columns of financial, budget, variance, and percentage data including job-to-date, year-to-date and period-to-date (for any defined accounting period), commitments, expenses, change orders and revisions.

• Summary and Detail reporting by Vendor, by Job, and percentage complete over any given period of time provides timely cost analysis by vendor and project – very useful for preparing draw requests
