Internal Costing
The Internal Costing tab contains all Object and Sub Object codes used in posting labor, mileage, equipment, and material testing costs through transactions generated from the Internal Costing batch process. Sub account fields are always optional, even if the primary account is required by other system configuration.
Special Accounts is the last in a sequence of lookups that is performed when determining the Object and Sub-Object values. The order of lookup is as follows:
For all costs, if the Object values are populated on Internal Costing Journal (ICJ), then those values are used. However, it is common for Object values to be prohibited for the Event Type used on the Internal Costing Transaction.
For overtime costs where the object is blank on the journal, then the first lookup is to Internal Costing Overtime Multipliers (ICOM). If populated then those values are used.
For all other types of costs and where Internal Costing Overtime Multipliers did not supply an Object for overtime, the next lookup is to Internal Cost Rate (INCR).
If no Object has been determined yet, the final lookup is to Special Accounts.
The following table displays default accounts in alphabetical order:
