Warehouse Job Costing

How much is being spent on inventory used on a job can now be tracked within Kojo. When general stock is allocated to a job, we track its usage so you can invoice your customers. In this article, we’ll detail step-by-step how to assign costs to general stock inventory. Check out the video or read below.

Within Warehouse, Kojo tracks when general stock is used on a job in three ways:

  1. Using the Move Items button on the inventory page to transfer stock to job stock

  2. When there is a manual adjustment on the inventory page

  3. When the field requests material from general stock and it is picked by the warehouse

Once the general stock has been transferred to a job, navigate to ‘Warehouse’ on the side navigation bar and select ‘Job Costing’.

Select the job that needs cost adjusted.

3. A material list of items that have been triggered for costing will be listed. Choose which material(s) you would like to confirm the price of and click ‘Create Internal Order’.

4. On the next screen, under the tab ‘Details’, you can add information like additional recipients and details.

5. Click the tab titled ‘Line Items’ and here you can edit the table with the information you need relating to the item’s quantity, price, etc. You can search for item pricing within Kojo in the ‘Orders’ section to ensure you are inputting the price that was paid for the materials you are updating.

(Note: if you update the quantity for an item, Kojo will create a new line item in the material costing menu to account for the adjusted quantity)

6. Once all updates are complete, a PDF invoice can be created by clicking ‘Invoice PDF’ in the top-right corner. This can be handed off to an accounting team. If you have an integration set up with Kojo to your ERP or accounting software you can link the order to your system.

7. Once costs are complete, click ‘Close Order’ in the top-right corner to finish your work.
