Business View ibvFeesOSByJob

Description

This view presents summary unmatched fees postings by period, date, job and categorisation. Basic figures are VAT exclusive, but the VAT amount is available within the view.

Therefore you should be cautious about any aggregation functions you apply to them. Postings that don't influence the time ledger at all (for example, receipts) will still be present. In this case there will be just one row for the fees posting and the job columns in the row will be missing.

 

This view obtains job based figures by apportionment. It will differ from the sum total debtors position by the amount of any bill that has not been allocated against WIP (or, indeed any bills that have been posted as not affecting the time ledger). It can also differ because of rounding discrepancies resulting from the apportionment of the billed amount across jobs that it writes time out for.

 

If all your bills write out time, and each one writes out to only one job, then figures should agree.

You can use view ibvFeesPostingFullRounding to establish the magnitude of discrepancies of this form.

Since this view is steered by the presence of postings, after any aggregation there will be no rows present for accounts and/or period combinations that have no postings present. Absence of an expected row should be taken as implying zero figures.
