Setting up WIP verification
WIP verification can be turned on or off for each transaction that has job costs associated with it.
Important! If you have turned on the WIP Verification for job costs, and are posting job costs to a job that is marked Post expenses to WIP asset account, you cannot post to a direct expense account. A message appears: WIP Posting is not = to job costs. You must correct your posting before you can save.
To set up WIP verification:
-
Open the transaction that has job costs on it.
For example, from 4-2 Payable Invoices/Credits, open a transaction.
-
From the main menu, click Costs, then click Job Costs.
-
From the Job Costs window menu, click Options.
-
From the Options menu, click WIP Verification.
-
Click Options again to verify that there is a check mark in front of the WIP verification.
