Job Costing

Job costing allows you to accurately analyze the full cost of your clients' jobs, based on the actual revenue and costs associated with each service. Here's how it works:

  1. We'll guide you through connecting your clients' QuickBooks for Windows company files with your clients' payroll accounts.
  2. Then, we'll sync your customers and service items from QuickBooks with your payroll account. Anytime you update your customers and service items, the information will also be available in your payroll account.
    Job Cost Syncing
  3. On payday, you can quickly create paychecks that include job costing information. Just pick the customers, services, and the number of hours worked.
    Job Cost Details
  4. After you create paychecks, export them to QuickBooks. You do this using Intuit Sync Manager, a QuickBooks feature that transmits your checks to QuickBooks, even if you're not running payroll on the same computer.
    Exporting to QuickBooks
  5. Once the data is in QuickBooks, you can use job costing reports to analyze the full cost of your jobs, including the payroll costs.
    QuickBooks Data

To start tracking your clients' job costs, go to the Setup tab and click Job Costing Beta. A support team member will contact you to set up your service.
