Setting Up JC Liability Template

The JC Liability Template is used to control what payroll liabilities are posted to job cost. It is a required field assigned to the job record, all relevant payroll liabilities are accurately tracked and allocated to the correct job.

Before you start​

  • The job record is set up.
  • Have a clear understanding of the payroll liabilities applicable to the job.

Steps​

  1. Navigate to theJC Liability Templateform.
  2. Assign the liability template to the job record. At a minimum, Liability Template 1 is set up.
  3. On the Liability Types tab, list all liability types that could process in the payroll module.
  4. Choose the calculate method: either 'posted exactly as payroll' or 'posted as a rate with a specified liability rate'.
  5. If using the rate method, specify the basis earning codes tab to identify which earning code wages should be used for the specific rate.
  6. Exclude any liability types that should not be posted to the job, ensuring they are directed to the employee's payroll department on the general ledger.

Notes​

  • Excluding a liability type from the template means that liability expense will not be posted to the job.
  • Ensure the correct calculate method is chosen to avoid discrepancies in job costing.
