Add or Edit a Job Code

Authorized users can use the Job Code Maintenance page to enter and maintain work order job codes. A job code defines the work that a laborer does. A work order can be associated to a certain job code, but not all work requires a work order. All work is associated to a job code, which retains the costing information recorded for a work order. 

To add job codes or edit existing job codes, follow the steps below.

  1. Go to Maintenance > Financial Management > Work Orders > Job Codes.
  2. To edit an existing job code, click the Edit icon next to the code listed. To add a new job code, click New.
  3. In Code, type an alphanumeric name to identify the job code.
  4. In Description, type a textual description for the job code. The text should describe certain departments that will be associated with a work order type. For example: General Services, Fire, Police, etc.
  5. Select the Active check box to designate the code as active in the system. If not selected the job code is inactive.
  6. In G/L Organization, select the General Ledger account with which the job code is associated.
  7. Click Save to save the job code in the system. Click Save/New to save the job code and create another code.

While editing a code and before you save, click Reset at any time to return to the previous state the page was in before you made changes.
