tasks involved in the job. You do this by adding new lines in the
Job Task Lines window, one task
per line. To get more detailed information on how to fill in the
various fields, click F1 in the field to open the field help.
Enter a number for the job task in the
Job Task No. field (click F1 to

Enter a description of the job task in
the Description field.
Select one of the options in the
Job Task Type field:
Posting, Heading, Total,

If you wish to assign different
posting groups to different tasks, fill in the Job Posting Group on the task. If you leave
this field empty, the Job Posting Group entered in the Job Card
will be used for the task.
Enter Total in the WIP-Total field if you wish to indicate
that the WIP should be calculated for a task and all blank tasks
above this task up until the
previous task with Total or Closed.
Enter Closed in the WIP-Total field if you wish to indicate
that the WIP should not be calculated for a task and all blank
tasks above this task up until the previous task with Total or
Closed. You may wish to do this if some tasks are still being
planned for the job and no usage or invoices have been posted
yet.
