IN Material Order Entry

IN Material Order Entry commits materials from inventory locations to jobs so job cost can track reserved units and cost.

Before you start

• Know the job, phase, cost type, source location, material, and units.
• Materials and locations are set up.

Steps

1. Open IN Material Order Entry.
2. Accept or enter the material order number (often sequential).
3. Enter the job the order is coded to.
4. Add order items: location, material, and units.
5. Enter the phase and cost type charged on the job.
6. When the batch is complete: File → Process Batch → validate → preview reports → post.

Notes

• Confirm actual usage later with Confirming IN Material Orders (or initialize confirmations for multi-line orders).
• Close leftover commitment with IN Material Order Close when the job is finished.
