About updating project costs automatically

You can choose from three methods to automatically update the costs from the job cost records. Because the costs only represent an estimate of the work actually completed, you can edit the amounts in the Current or Percent Complete columns.

Option

What it does

Percent from Costs

Updates the current costs from the job costs, and computes the percent of work completed by comparing the budgeted costs to the total job costs.

From Cost Amounts

Updates the current costs from the job costs. Use this when a project has no budget entered in Sage 100 Contractor.

From Billing Totals

Updates the current costs using the Billing Amounts from the job costs. Use this in conjunction with Time and Materials Billing.

Tip: When the lender requires a classification system that differs from your cost codes, manually enter the costs incurred since the last application in the Current text box for each cost code.
