Close Job

Explanation

When all costs have been recorded on the financial job it is time to post the actual cost of the job to cost of sales and to close the job. This is done either automatically or manually, depending on your choice when you created the job.

You can manually close a job even if not all the manufacturing and/or inventory transactions related to the job are moved to the General Ledger or not all the applicable purchase orders are fully invoiced. You can review the status of each job in the dialog box that opens.
