Assigning transactions to jobs


Most transaction-entry windows in MYOB AccountEdge consist of scrolling lists, where line item detail is entered for each transaction you record. The Job column is usually at the far right end of these scrolling lists. Use the Job column to assign a particular job to each line item in the transaction. (Windows in which you can enter a job)

You can assign transactions to detail jobs only. [Choosing the type of job (Detail or Header)]

Assign each line to the appropriate job

Enter a job number on each line item that is related to the job.

Don't forget that each line item in a transaction can be assigned to a specific job. If you assign only the top line item in a scrolling list to a job, the other line items below it won't be assigned to that job automatically. You'll need to make an entry in the Job column for each line item.

Of course, if you don't want to assign a line item to a job, you can leave the Job column blank for that item.

Multiple jobs can be assigned to employee payments. (Distributing employee pay to jobs)

Set a preference to display a reminder

You can set a preference to display a reminder if one or more of the lines on a transaction don't have a job assigned to them, if you wish. When you receive the reminder, you'll have the option of recording the transaction as is or of returning to the transaction and assigning a job to every line. (System view of the Preferences window)
