Job Dates and Other Job-Related Information

For each project and job, you can enter planned start and end dates, and actual start and end dates when this information becomes available. You can also enter other date information that is important for the reporting purposes. When you create a schedule for the job, you can enter planned and actual start and end dates initially or at a later date. The system stores job-related date information in the Extended Job Master table (F5108).

For each job, you can enter equipment rate information. You must first set up a user-defined code that indicates the billing rate for the equipment. The system stores equipment rate information in the Business Unit Master table (F0006). Equipment/Plant Management uses the information to determine the correct rate to charge the job for equipment costs.

You can enter tax information about the job. You can also set up a user-defined code to control how tax is assessed and distributed to the general ledger revenue and expense accounts for the job.

If you use JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Payroll, you can enter payroll information for the job. You can indicate whether the job has a burden rate and then set up that burden rate. Burden is defined as the direct expense that a company incurs for an employee in addition to wages. Some examples of direct expenses that the company pays are company and payroll taxes, health insurance, and company-paid benefits. You can specify whether the job should have information about it included in payroll reports. You can also identify pay rate tax rules that might apply to the job. The system stores payroll information for the job in the Establishment Constant File table (F069056).

If you do not use JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Payroll, you can set a processing option to hide payroll fields on the job master forms.
