The Contractors’ Job Cost System
Introduction
Billing Reports
Billing reports track amounts you have received, have billed, or intend to bill.
They show how much revenue your projects are providing.
The JTD Billing Summary Report provides summary information about the
amount you bill for each job. The information is printed from the Jobs Master file
(CJBSx).
The Billing Detail Report prints detail billing information from the Detail
History file (CJHIx).
The Profit Detail Report provides estimated and actual costs, revenues, and
variances to date of a job or a range of jobs. Information in this report is printed
from the Jobs and the Detail History files.
Periodic Processing
Use the Periodic Processing functions to inquire about the status of projects. You
can check budget projections, work in process, trial balance, cost and income
amounts, and accumulated overhead.
Generate the Budget Projection Report when you want to compare a job’s
actual cost with its budgeted cost. Use it to check what is over and under budget,
to help you revise estimates, or to review the primary completion of a project.
At the end of the monthly accounting cycle, generate the Work in Process
Report. The calculation of earned income for each job is used to make a monthly
adjustment to income.
The Job Trial Balance Report shows costs and income for a job over month-todate, year-to-date, and job-to-date periods.
The Job Periodic Analysis Report shows the costs and income for a job over a
range of periods. Use it as an aid for estimating, as part of month-end reports, or
to review the job’s status.
