What job costing can do for you out of its own
purpose?
One
way of using job costing is creating component accounts.
imaging a person who has one account under 'Sundry Debtors'
and another account under 'Sundry Creditors'.
To find his status in all his accounts you can create one
job costing account and use it in all his transactions, then
you will see his status in job costing reports.
Another way of using job costing is when you want a report
on some of the vouchers, for example on the sale
vouchers bigger than 2 millions,
First you need to create one job costing account and use it
in the sales vouchers with total amount of bigger than 2
millions.
Then all job costing reports for this account will give you
information about those vouchers.
