Operational Flexibility
Security	Certain data such as profit information, labor costs, and administrative functions are controlled by a select group of individuals or groups. Flexibility allows entry of sales orders but not work tickets, work tickets but not sales orders, or both. Time entry may be restricted by status code or for jobs that are in excess of budget.	User-Defined Key Term Labeling	In order to accommodate a variety of businesses, key terms in the system are controlled via the setup parameters to include the ability to re-label Work Ticket, Activity Code, and Step Number descriptions.
Work Ticket Classes	The work ticket class contains many parameters that facilitate different behavior of JobOps, depending on your business requirements. Examples include billing method selection, different user-defined fields, different scheduling rules, account segment substitution, and many other options that allow for a variety of business requirements to be accommodated simply by using a different work ticket class.	Cost Recognition Models	Cost may be recognized during partial billings with cost being relieved from work in process based on percent of completion, all costs to date, or a manually entered amount.
Dynamic Inventory	This global option turns JobOps into a real-time inventory system, instantly relieving inventory and purchase receipts to the work ticket upon issue. Reassignment back to inventory is as easy as changing the issue quantity. Full transactional tracking of these issues are tracked and available to view.	Default Parts Cost	Ability for budgeting to default to last cost, standard cost, or average cost. Actual cost of purchases, including variances, will always be posted to the work ticket.
Data Entry Features
Efficient Data Entry	Work tickets may be created manually, from another open work ticket, from a work ticket in history, from a template, or from a product configuration.	Work Ticket Entry	Use Work Ticket Entry to enter production information, work ticket assignments, component requirements, budgets and maintain status information necessary to complete the work ticket. Work Ticket Entry may be accessed only through Sales Order Entry. Work Ticket Entry consists of several tabs through which you can enter, modify, or review information such as parts requirements and usage, labor detail, direct Accounts Payable charges, outstanding purchases, status information and profitability.
Work Ticket Templates	Create templated work tickets complete with routings, instruction text, links to bills of material, and parts lists. Work tickets may then be easily created from a template, or just a new step for a work ticket may be created from a specified template step. A template may also be constructed from another template or from an open or historical work ticket.	Shipping Data Entry	Controlled by work ticket class, the shipping data entry function can be used to ship work ticket items.
Inventory And Non-Stock Items	A work ticket may include any combination of inventory, miscellaneous, and special items.	Step Recap Window	The Work Ticket Step Recap window provides a snapshot overview of all work ticket steps. Steps appear in step number order, showing each step's description, scheduled dates, budget information, current status, hours remaining, default activity code, primary assignee and quantity completed information. View both the original and revised budgets and edit step information, and create or delete steps.
Production Scheduling Window	The Production Scheduling for Work Ticket window is used to create initial schedules for work tickets using the finite or infinite capacity planning scheduling methods. The Production Scheduling for Work Ticket window may also be used to reschedule any work ticket, including work tickets that use the date-based scheduling model.	Capacity Scheduling Detail Window	The Capacity Scheduling Detail for Work Ticket window allows you view or manually change the scheduled dates and hours of each scheduled work ticket step.
Repair Item Information Window	Order-based work tickets may be tagged as being a repair order for a specific item in history or you can create a new warranty/serial record on the fly. When the work ticket is closed, all costs and revenues associated with the work ticket update to the Warranty/Serial Tracking file.

Integration With Sage MAS 90 or Sage MAS 200 Modules
JobOps integrates with Sage MAS 90 or Sage MAS 200 Sales Order, Inventory Management, Accounts Payable, Purchase Order, Payroll, Timekeeper, and Bill of Materials.
Inventory Control	The Inventory Control module has been altered slightly to provide some additional controls when JobOps work tickets are underway. It impacts some costing utilities and the physical count process along with capturing standard warranty terms on serialized items. When JobOps is installed, every serialized item sold or used on a work ticket or sales order is automatically tracked in a Time Tracker traceability file.	Accounts Receivable	The Accounts Receivable module has been modified to display pertinent information about work ticket items from within the Invoice History Inquiry function, as well as full work ticket history drilldown capability.
Accounts Payable	The Accounts Payable module has been enhanced to allow vouchers to be posted directly to an open or historical work ticket, or a work ticket associated with a sales order price quote.	General Ledger	General Ledger is at the heart of every accounting system. JobOps does not modify this module but feeds it with appropriate work in process and cost of goods sold information as the job incurs cost and is subsequently billed.
Bill of Materials	The Bill of Materials module has not been modified by JobOps; however, it is integrated throughout. As bills of material are referenced in JobOps, bill components are added to work tickets—including phantom blow-through to lower level bills. If a parent item is also a bill item, option bills are also supported during sales order entry so that the appropriate parts are automatically exploded into the work ticket.	Material Requirements Planning (MRP)	The MRP module has been enhanced to deal with JobOps data appropriately, to allow the buyer to properly set purchase levels and the scheduler to know what materials are constraints to production.
e-Business Manager	The e-Business Manager module has been altered slightly to properly process JobOps data. While work tickets are not generated automatically from an e-Business Manager order, a work ticket may be generated on an order created through e-Business Manager. Component information is not displayed back to the customer on subsequent queries to the Web site.	Payroll	Payroll can be automatically created, along with all corresponding deductions, for shop floor employees who entered their time in Time Tracker. Using login/logout times and optional overtime calculations, employees that use this "time clock" capability can be automatically paid through the Payroll module with no further data entry.
Purchase Order	The Purchase Order module has been enhanced to link a purchase order line directly to an existing work ticket part. Additional work ticket parts may be added directly to the work ticket when linking purchase order line items. Once the relationship between the Purchase Order detail and the Work Ticket detail have been established, the materials are issued directly to the job upon receipt and any variances are automatically posted directly to the job.	Sales Order	The Sales Order module has been modified extensively to accommodate JobOps. All of the Work Ticket functionality is accessed from within the Sales Order. If no work ticket class is present on the order, it operates as a normal Sage MAS 90 or Sage MAS 200 sales order. Once a work ticket class is entered, you can have up to 999 work tickets on a single order.
Transaction History
Detail History Retention	Complete cost transaction detail retained in history, including lot and serial numbers.
Forms
Graphical Form Printing by Work Ticket Class	Given the fact that different work ticket classes can represent entirely different services (i.e. internal manufacture, custom manufacture, installation, service and repair, etc.), a separate form code may be associated with each work ticket class to make possible different work ticket presentation requirements.	Work Tickets	Work tickets may be printed or reprinted at any time. A line based, order based and item based sample Crystal Reports work ticket form is automatically installed with JobOps. Using Crystal Reports you may vary the form to suit your needs.
Inquries
Work Ticket Inquiry	A work ticket inquiry allows full access to all the same functions as maintaining the work ticket in addition to allowing a profit and summary review across work tickets for the sales order. A Work Ticket Inquiry Drilldown feature provides specific reports for labor, direct costs, component and production information for a specific work ticket step, a specific work ticket or all work tickets associated with the sales order from the Summary view in Work Ticket Inquiry.	Work Ticket History Inquiry	Work Ticket information is retained within the history files, enabling you to view the work ticket associated with each transaction line.
Warranty/Serial Tracking Lookup	You can use this inquiry to check an item's warranty expiration dates before creating an order to determine whether the item is still under warranty. The warranty/serial tracking file also stores accumulated revenue and costs from the sale of the item and all subsequent invoice revenues and costs.
Utilities
Parts Import	Parts may be imported from a template, a bill of materials, or a comma delimited text file. Perform the import directly from within Work Ticket Entry for convenience.	Zero Invoice WIP Flush Utility	This utility is used to move additional costs out of work in process through the invoicing cycle without billing for additional revenue. This is useful at times when all the revenue has been billed but additional costs arrive prior to closing out the work ticket.
Work Ticket Class Change Utility	This utility is used to change the work ticket class assigned in an open work ticket. This is useful when a work ticket was created with an incorrect work ticket class and saves time by not having to recreate the work ticket.	Warranty Tracking Purge	This option allows for cleaning up old and obsolete warranty/serial tracking information based on a selection date.
Rich Feature Set
Warranty/Serial Number Tracking	The warranty/serial tracking feature is automatic for all serialized items, parent items, issued work ticket components or sold from inventory on a sales order invoice. A warranty record is established, with the warranty dates defined based on the parameters assigned to the inventory item’s warranty periods. You may search the warranty records by: manufacturer serial number, internal serial number, customer number, or item number. Warranty records and transaction history for conversion of existing history may be manually entered.	Step Instructions	Enter and maintain freeform text for each step of a work ticket.
Work Ticket Attachments	You can create links to attachments for each work ticket, such as spreadsheets, CAD drawings, or word processing documents.	Work Ticket Quick Print	A work ticket may be printed on demand from within the work ticket maintenance routine.
Post Closed Cost Tracking	Costs incurred after the work ticket is closed may be captured to the historical work ticket to properly reflect actual costs incurred.	User-Defined Information Fields by Work Ticket Class	Five user-defined information fields may be captured only at the work ticket header step or at each step. Each field can be defined as text, number, date, yes/no, or a validated code. These fields may also be marked as being required. Each work ticket class may have its own set of user defined information fields.
Work Ticket Creation Levels	Work tickets may be created at the order level (entire order is a single work ticket), or tied to an individual sales order line (up to 999 work tickets may be established per order).	Purchase Order Creation	You may generate purchase orders from Work Ticket Parts Entry to acquire individual components needed to complete a work ticket step.
Budgets	Two budgets are maintained for the work ticket: an original and revised budget. Budgets may be optionally recalculated based on the activity code of the step, the budgeted labor hours, and all the component requirements on the step. When costs post to the work ticket, the original budget becomes locked and only the revised budget may be maintained.	Step Copy	A step on a work ticket may be created and copied from an open work ticket, a closed work ticket, or a template step.
Zero Billing	The Work Ticket Zero Billing Selection allows you to automatically generate zero balance invoices and, when the invoice is updated, recognize existing costs on open work tickets.	Make to Stock Work Tickets	This special option allows for the creation of work tickets that, upon completion, will post the finished items into inventory, reassigning work in process back to the item’s asset account.
Work in Process Accounting	All costs associated with work tickets are automatically posted to Work In Process and are relieved during invoicing when revenue is recognized.	Bypass Work in Process Option	When work in process accounting does not need to be tracked, all costs associated with work tickets post to their respective cost accounts, rather than work in process, at the time the cost is incurred to the work ticket.
Chargeable Components	If up-charges or other ancillary charges are required, or when revenue must be posted to multiple revenue accounts, the ability exists to assign revenue to a specific component/part. These components may be optionally printed on the invoice form and will post independently from the rest of the work ticket while continuing to stay part of the work ticket for profitability reporting.	Component Lot/Serial Assignment	Lot/Serial number assignments will reserve (or relieve if Dynamic Inventory is on) lot and serialized items without waiting for the invoice to be generated.
Auto Issue Parts Option	The Auto Issue Parts feature in Time Tracker allows you to issue all components or a pro-rated quantity of components to a selected work ticket while entering time worked.	Backflush Parts Option	Parts may be issued manually or automatically backflushed when the work ticket is closed.
Component Exception Manager	The Component Exception Manager is designed to be an easy way for both the production planner and buyer to quickly review shortages and generate the appropriate documents to fulfill the demand. It will identify what items need to be purchased or manufactured over a given planning period. It also interactively generates purchase orders and work tickets to meet demand.	Time and Materials Functions	An Activity Code may be specified as billable by associating a miscellaneous charge code and billing rate. As time is posted against the billable activity, a chargeable component line is automatically created using the miscellaneous charge code with the number of hours worked at the billing rate. A special billing rate may be established by customer and activity to allow for a very flexible rate structure.
JobOps Planner	The Materials Planner identifies items needing to be purchased for stock and for work tickets, and what items need to be made. The Planner makes recommendations and allows the user to act on them immediately by generating purchase orders and work tickets.
Reports
A flexible utility has been developed to create a useful view of the JobOps data specifically for reporting. These tables alleviate the need to create extensive table links and do some valuable preprocessing of the data to give a view of the information conducive to management reporting.
