Understanding Basic Job Inquiry

You use the Job Status Inquiry: Basic program to review the actual costs and units, budgeted costs and units, committed costs and units, and projected final values from the Account Balances table using columns that are predefined. Processing options enable you to specify which columns to display so that you can customize the inquiry form as needed. The form provides options to display period, cumulative (year-to-date), or inception-to-date amounts. Inception-to-date includes the balance forward amount from the prior year in conjunction with the year-to-date totals. For original budget amounts and units, the system displays information from the BORG field (original budget) for the amount or units ledger. For revised budget amounts and units, the system displays information from the period amount fields (AN01 - AN14) for the amount or units ledger.

Note: Revised budget ledgers include the JA and JU ledgers, plus any additional ledgers that you set up and use in JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Job Cost.
