Correct Indirect Labor

With the financials, you will an adjustment code that updates the job and credits the indirect cost account that needs to be credited.

Then you can do a job adjustment to the labor with that reason code.

Hi Marty,

I need to change it because the employee was working on the job but put
the Indirect code on his time card. This was entered and posted last month
so I can't use Labor Edit. We discovered the Job has no time charged to it
and need to fix it.

I know I can just Cost Adjust the job but I'm afraid of fouling up
financials somewhere.

Thanks,
Bob

Why are you changing indirect Labor to a job? Or are you calling Rework or
additional Inspection indirect labor. We look at indirect labor as cleaning
or move people stuff like that.

Have you tried Labor Edit to fix it. Or did you already run your cost/wip
and can't go in to change it that way now.

I need to move 3 hours from indirect labor to a Job. This is on an already
posted labor entry. The help says that I can create another labor entry and
enter negative hours but the system doesn't seem to allow a negative entry.
If it was Job to Job I could just do a Job Cost Adjustment but that doesn't
help for Indirect labor.

Thanks,
BobT
