AP transactions are not showing in Job Cost
Description
Cause

Common causes include:

  • The transaction has a future accounting date. (The accounting date on the Job Cost transaction is more than one month into the future from the current month in Job Cost).
  • The transaction needs to be manually posted.
    • The transaction did not previously post due to a future date but Job Cost is now in the correct month (see previous bullet).
    • The transaction's application of origin has the interface settings to Job Cost set to manual post or create entries to Job Cost was deselected.
    • A task in Job Cost (such as imports) is set up for manual posting of transactions.
    • Invoices were entered and posted with Create Entries to Job Cost not selected in File, Company Settings, AP Settings, Post and Interface Settings.
  • The Job, Extra, Cost code or Category you are posting to does not exist in Job Cost.
  • Invoice changes do not post to interfacing applications automatically (e.g., General Ledger, Job Cost, etc.) even when the Accounts Payables Post and Interface Settings are set to Automatic.
  • Deleted invoices and voided checks do not post to interfacing applications automatically (e.g., General Ledger, Job Cost, etc.) even when the Accounts Payables Post and Interface Settings are set to Automatic.
  • The software suddenly closed, or aborted during data entry and there is a locked file at the server. If your Job Cost entries are not posting, there is no rejection reason on the posting journal, and you have ruled out other causes, the problem might have been caused by a file in use or locked file at the server level.
  • The transaction has been moved new to new (outside of live folder) or has been moved current to history after posting.

If the missing entries are from an invoice, verify invoices are posted in Accounts Payable:

  1. From the Accounts Payable Tasks menu, select Post invoices.
  2. Click Start and review the Post invoices journal for any rejections

Post entries in Job Cost:

  1. From the Job Cost Tasks menu, select Post Entries.
  2. Click Start and review the post entries journal for any rejections.

Verify the Invoice includes the correct job information:

  1. Accounts Payable, Inquiry, Invoice Inquiries, Invoices by Job.
  2. Select the applicable Job and double click with mouse to drill down to AP distributions.
  3. Add columns as needed.
  4. Add conditions as needed.
  5. If the invoice is not listed, the invoice was deleted or does not contain job information for this job. Correct the job information in Change invoices. See How do I add, change, or remove job cost information from an Accounts Payable invoice?
