Ability to use Project and Manufacturing?

Posted on by 75

Does anyone know if you can or are you currently running both the Project Accounting and the Manufacturing Job Cost Modules for GP 10.0?  Our business really requires us to run both but can not find any information on the abilty to run both.

    Hi,

    I have implemented project accounting alongside manufacturing.  I suggest you utilize specific inventory sites solely for Project Accounting separate from MFG inventory sites.....  Transfers can still be made between the MFg sites and PA sites.  This is specially true if you utilize PA in a R&D environment or pre-production (eligible for tax credits). 

    Job costing in MFG is separate from Project Accounting and information from MFG does not necessarily transfer to Project Accounting and vice versa.  Several businesses use MFG for their production and use Project Accounting for their Pre-Production/Modelshop/R&D activities. 

    There are configuration considerations around Purchase Order/Receiving/Transfers and business processes that should be reviewed.

    Hope this helps some.

    Dear BGredelJob Costing helps you link records and transactions (AP-AR-IV-SOP-POP-MFG)to a specific job and track the costs associated with a specific job. Job Costing doesn’t create or affect transactions—it just captures information from transactions. Project Accounting in Microsoft Dynamics GP connects project activities with company financials, provides extensive reporting capabilities, helps ensure accurate accounting and billing processes throughout project life cycles, and streamlines time and expense management. It empowers your people by giving them easy access to the key project information and templates they need to do their jobs quickly and efficiently
