JC Job Management window: Detail tab
The Detail tab includes all of your phases and Cost Codes for the job. You can add new phases and Cost Codes or edit information already included. It’s important to keep the detail information accurate to ensure your totals are accurate.
The top row of the grid shows the totals for the job. Each Phase row shows the totals for all the Cost Codes included in that Phase. You can click the Display Summary Grid button to view only the Phase rows and not the Cost Codes in each phase.
You can double-click on any row in the grid to open that Cost Code. In the Cost Codes window, you can make changes for the job only or select the Update template check box to permanently save the changes.
The Type, Code, and Description columns are locked and will stay visible when you scroll. You can right-click at the start of any row (except the Job row) to delete it. If you delete a Phase row, the entire Phase is removed.
