Successful job management requires an up-to-date overview, detailed planning and the ability to carry out follow-up analyses based on objective data. The Jobs application area enables detailed accounting and planning for all costs and billings for a project or job.

First of all, automated billing prevents costs from going unbilled. Secondly, integration with other application areas ensures that costs are posted to the relevant application areas. This also reduces the amount of detail you must maintain in the General Ledger. Finally, budgets and estimates allow you to make detailed costing plans and better analyze your profitability.

Prevent Costs from Going Unbilled
Microsoft Business Solutions Project Management–Navision enables you to organize your job management in detail. You can use Jobs for general registration and invoicing of work in process. As costs are incurred on a job, the program automatically records them in the job ledger and posts them to relevant accounts in other areas of the application (such as accounts payable for the vendor). Billing is then automatic for all costs that are chargeable thus preventing costs from going unbilled. You can use Jobs for traditional construction-job costing or for service-oriented time tracking and billing.

Maximize Job Efficiency
The Jobs application area enables you to plan precisely and to execute usage-value analyses, and follow-ups on projects, quotes, invoicing, costing and registration of actual consumption.

Budgets or estimates can be created that include inventory items, resources and other expenses. You can include as much detail as you need, and you can copy details from other budgets or estimates. Actual usage and sales can be linked directly to individual budget lines for comparison with the estimated costs and sales prices.

You can also organize budgets and estimates into sub-activities called phases, tasks and steps in order to extract important information about the long-term profitability of different aspects of jobs the company is performing. By linking actual usage and sales to the phases, tasks and steps of the budget, you can compare the same activities across several different jobs. There are no limitations to the number of subdivisions that you can make.
