Assigning line items to jobs


You can assign line items of a General Journal entry to jobs by entering a job number in the Job column. You can, if you wish, assign a line entry to more that one job. For example, assume you want to record the depreciation of your equipment, but you want to assign $100 of the depreciation to job 12 and $200 to job 43. In the first line item of the transaction, enter the account you use to track depreciation, $100 in the Credit field and 12 in the Job field. In the second line item of the transaction, enter the depreciation account again, $200 in the Credit field and 43 in the Job field.
