Work Order Charges

You can charge costs to work orders by using any JD Edwards EnterpriseOne system that creates general ledger transaction records with a subledger type of W. For example, for a particular work order, you can use the Accounts Payable system to charge for travel time and expenses, the Inventory Management system to charge for material costs, and the Payroll or Time and Labor systems to charge for employee time.

You enter charges to a work order through a subledger. The subledger stores information in the Account Ledger table (F0911) and the Account Balances table (F0902). You can access the work order information in these tables for project management and cost accounting purposes.

For example, using subledger accounting, you can:

  • Review summaries of work order charges by job or business unit.

  • Maintain and track costs online from the Work Orders system.

  • Review posted and unposted cost transactions for individual work orders.
