Job/Department cost splitting

Hi Mark
We have created multiple Jobs. We note that we can process a purchase invoice to only one job. However in practice we find that we need to split the invoice to various jobs. eg. if we buy 20 bags of cement we need to split the costs to various jobs accordingly. Is there a way to do this or have we missed a step.
Many thanks

Hi Kieranz,

I'm afraid that in Solar Accounts you can only have one job per transaction. One workaround is to create a 'Split Job Control Account' and use this account on your purchase invoice. Then record multiple General Transactions to transfer the money to the appropriate expense account - each of these general transactions can have a different job.

Regards,
