Job costing supplier bills means tagging each bill line to a job so you can see cost against budget for every job.
Before you start
- Project management and accounting
The Dynamics 365 Finance way
Where to find it: Project > Item task > Purchase order
- Open the project and create an item task.
- Create a purchase order from it.
- On the line open the Project tab and check cost and sales prices.
- Invoice as normal.
Limits in Dynamics 365 Finance
- Project cost accrual of receipts is a separate feature.
The Pulsify way
- Forward the supplier's invoice to Pulsify. Pulsify reads every row as its own line.
- Review each line's account and set the job where it applies.
- Route bills to the person who knows the job, using approval rules.
- Approve. The vendor invoice is created in Dynamics 365 Finance with each line.
Pulsify connects to Dynamics 365 Finance. We set up the connection for you.
What Pulsify does not do here
- Pulsify does not split lines by percentage.
- Job reports are run in Dynamics 365 Finance.
Common mistakes
- Raising the purchase order outside the project, so there is no item task to link the cost.
- Expecting receipt accruals to reach the project without the separate project cost accrual feature.
