Jobshop Costing

Jobshop’s powerful suite of costing functionality provides users with a wide variety of options based on standard, current or actual costs. All purchasing, manufacturing and associated costs are determined within a single database engine; ensuring reports are based on consistent and accurate data.

Individual job costs can be determined instantly via screen enquiries or in report form, with actual costs available for comparison against original estimate figures. Full cost roll ups can be computed for single or multi-level BOM at the touch of a button.

Estimating can be used to provide accurate costings prior to the compilation of quotes or tender documents.

Stock valuations can be compiled at any time to a variety of stock accounting rules, with results based on standard, current or actual costs, as well as individual line item or product group. Work-in-Progress valuations can also be compiled on demand to specific accounting standards.

Comprehensive material and labour tracking procedures enable detailed cost of sales analyses to be undertaken, showing the profitability of individual orders at any stage.

Jobshop provides a wide variety of standard and user-defined costing reports including:

Cost to date v budget
Cost to completion v budget
Inventory valuation by contract
Contract WIP report
Purchase orders by contract

Powerful reporting routines highlight variances in ‘planned’ against ‘actual’ and ‘standard’ against ‘current’ costs.

Testimonials

“Good software needs to be backed by good support, which is what we get from Jobshop. We employ more of the system’s capabilities than most other users and have always found the Jobshop team to be very responsive to any queries or issues we’ve raised.

I also like the fact that we have a single, nominated point of contact, which has undoubtedly helped to build a very good relationship between our two companies.”
