Jobs/Projects/Manufacturing
The Jobs module is very versatile and can be used in several ways.
It offers full management for controlling projects, such as construction, allowing you to compare costs, including labour and machinery expenses, against budgets and calculate profits. A proportion of indirect costs, such as electric and water can also be applied to the job.
Many types of business, from Graphic Design to Construction can benefit from the details reports produced by the Jobs option. Details of deposits and stage payments may be recorded and listed
For Manufacturing companies, the Jobs option not only offers details of actual costs but provides a simple and easy option to produce batches and transfer to stock at the touch of a button. Cost centres can provide a way of grouping jobs into sites, and can also offer details of labour usage.
Documents containing a detailed description of the jobs and transactions relating to them can easily be produced.
Cost Centres
Cost centres can be used in many ways to give extra analysis to your accounts. The information you gain will depend on how and where you use them.
They can be used to:
- Separate income and expenses for separate departments, or company activities
- Calculation of commission on invoices for sales people
- Group jobs by site
- Provide analysis of machine use
- Provide various locations for products
- Provide analysis of employees time
Many reports and statements will allow you to enter the cost centre field in the layout, providing information on where the cost centre has been used. In addition, many reports can be filtered by an entered cost centre to show only transactions or balances for that cost centre.
Currency
Up to 10 currencies may be used in A++. The currency option allows you to record the currency rate at the time of entering the invoice, and then on entering the receipt or payment. Any profit or loss on the currency transactions will automatically be posted to the P&L account.
A simple to use feature allows all currency cash accounts, and outstanding sales and purchase currency invoices to be revalued; required by the Thai Revenue at the Year end.
Importing/Exporting/Shipping
The Importing/Exporting option allows you to post all the transactions involved in importing/exporting goods in a simple manner to obtain the Real cost of goods (on the shelf cost), and supply the correct profit margins.
This option allows the cost of importing, including shipping, warehousing and customs duty, to be invoiced to a customer making it an ideal solution for shipping companies. Documents may be designed to include details, such as Shipping Date and Waybill numbers.
Departments/Branches
The department option will allow you to separate the accounting activities for different parts of the business. Separate numbering systems can be used for branches which need to submit their own Revenue reports, such as VAT and Withholding Tax.
An easily used Prompt system helps to prevent user errors.
