You can view job usage up to the completion of a project in one step. To do so, you use the Job Calc. Remaining Usage batch job for all the tasks up to and including the end of a job.
This lets you track and compare your original estimates against actual results and make modifications or new entries as needed.
For example, you may have estimated that a job required 10 hours, and to date, it has taken 15 hours. You can add the extra five hours to the existing journal line or create a new journal line to report these five hours as overtime, which is another work type.
The appropriate cost and price are calculated, and you can then post to the journal.

| Item entries create item ledger entries and reduce item on stock. The Post Inventory Cost to G/L batch job transfers the cost from inventory to the general ledger. Resource entries create resource ledger entries. |
