May I preface my request with a sincere "Thank You!" to those who
posted your patriotic feelings on this group during the past week.

I'm sure that one of you can guide me on the following issue. We are
on Vantage 5.00.329 and it appears we cannot add cost to a job line
once it has been completed. I originally was under the understanding
that we could add late costs until we did the final closing. We also
understand that opening a job (after it has been completed) will
create costs to dump into variance accounts. Can someone elaborate
on what the actual sequence of events is and how you can get late
labor, material or subcontractor costs included?

Hi Jim,

We are on 4.00.904. We can still add costs to a complete job by entering
labor transactions through labor entry, or by receiving material or
subcontracting in. Once the job is closed, we can no longer add costs in
this was without re-opening the job.

Sarah,

We how do you receive amterial on a job that is closed. I am also on 4.0 and we receive an error stating the job is closed.

Dina

Only way I know is to open the job again. Complete jobs can still take
transactions, but closed ones cannot. Accounting closes jobs here,
production completes them.

Another thing to note about Vantage is that if you ship from a job, then
receive an invoice for that job afterwards, that data is not reflected on
the Sales Gross Margin Report even though it is correctly reflected on the
production detail report. Contact Support to get this idiosynchrisy
changed.

No, I said we can add costs to a COMPLETE job. Once the job is closed, we
can no longer add costs in this was without re-opening the job.

If you understand the logic behind it, it sort of makes sense. Since some
customers leave jobs open and make multiple shipments from the job over
time, they were trying to calculate (approximate?) the cost incurred at the
time of shipment. They do that by running through the job's transactions
up to the date, and juggling some other numbers to get the quantity
completed at that point. Yes, any transactions after the ship date are
ignored.

And while the invoicing might generate an ADJ-MTL or ADJ-PUR to WIP, if
you have a cost on the purchase order, that price will be used in the
transactions going into WIP.

Search for 253MPS on EraNet if you want all the gory details ;)

The WIP report, however, has flat out BUGS in it! See 4997MPS.
