Q: Can you create a Fixed Price job and change it to a Do & Charge job later, or visa versa?
A: Yes, the type of job can be changed at a later date – even if a quote or estimate has already been created. It is recommended that quotes or estimates made prior to the job type change be deleted. If invoices already exist for the job, it is still possible to change but not recommended – as invoices are handled in different ways for Do & Charge jobs and Fixed Price jobs.
Q: The price of inventory items was updated, but the items have already been recorded onto the job. How do I update the prices of the items to the latest costs?
A: You can return or record materials used on a job on the Record Consumables page. If you return the items you have consumed, they will return at the price they were when they were consumed. If the price is updated after an item is used, the cost of items already used on this screen does not update unless you remove them and re-add them. New items will always be consumed at the latest cost. If possible, though, we recommend making sure that items are the correct cost before they are consumed.
Job Review report
Q: My profession is $40/hr, but for some reason the “incurred costs” column on the Job Review page reads $8 for a full day of work.
A: The cost for the profession on the BOM is just an estimate. The incurred costs for professions draw from the dollar amount consumed on the job, which is pulled from the individual staff member’s cost per hour. If the assigned staff has a cost per hour of $1 in Gojee, this would for example make 25 hours of work display as $25 for incurred costs.
