in other accounting systems, i've seen the option to apply expenses to a "job". the job could be named and used to track all expenses "applied" to it. is there anything like that in gp?

I think you can use project module. If you use project accounting, you can setup one project for a "job", through the input of time sheet, employee expense, equiment log, purchasing invoice, inventory and MISC log, you can track all expenses which are applied to this job.
Well, you can track your expenses by listing them all and have a validation. I usually do that to know what are the important things to buy and pay for then, if there are extra money, I save it or go on shopping.
You could use Analytical Accounting for that, or you could use Multi-Dimensional Analysis (being replace by analytical Accounting). If you go to F1 within Great Plains you can then go to Printable Manuals and go to Financial>>Analytical Accounting. With AA you could come up with a group called Job and then codes for each job. You can make it optional to record against an account for a job or required against certain accounts that they put in the distribution to a job. And you can even default some information in if you wanted. But I would take a look at that.
There is a project accounting module as well which would be project listed, but that module is huge and complex and I'm sure way above what you need.
