Expensing Job-Related Additional Costs

If job-related additional costs are expensed rather than prorated, you can specify the contract, project, category, cost class, resource, billing type, billing rate (if appropriate), currency, A/R item number, and unit of measure for the additional cost.

Depending on the category, you may choose to calculate overhead or labor burden for the additional cost. Overhead and labor are calculated by Project and Job Costing and passed back to Purchase Orders when you post the receipt.

Expensed additional costs are assigned their own transaction numbers, because they are sent to Project and Job Costing as separate transactions.

Note: Once you post a receipt, you cannot change the billing type, billing currency, A/R item number, A/R unit of measure, overhead calculation, or labor calculation for additional costs.
