Adding Jobs

Prerequisites for Automated Jobs

These jobs can be automatically created provided the following has been defined/set for a business in the edit business page

  • Business status needs to be set to customer or ceasing
  • Relationship Manager must be set to an operator
  • Accounts & Business Tax checked in services tab
  • Accounting year end month and day are set in accounting tab
When the Jobs are Created

Jobs are automatically created at the start of the tax year. You can confirm when the next automated job will be by checking on the Future Jobs in the client’s Jobs Pod. If no future job is listed then all the pre-requisites for the job are not set.

When you first add a client to the system, a job for the current tax year will not be automatically created since it is unclear if you or another accountant will have performed this job. You will therefore need to manually add a job for the new client.

Manually Adding Jobs

To manually add a job, view the history page of the required business and ensure that the accountancy pod is enabled. Click on the + button on the Accnts & Bus. Tax row.

Viewing Jobs

To view a job you can either click on the job in the job list view or by clicking on the job name in the accountancy pod on the business history page.

Job Flow

Once each stage of a job is completed the relevant date field should be filled in. On saving, the status of the job will be updated and the next alert date will be calculated.

Job Name will usually be set to the date of year end for that year in format of dd/mm/yyyy eg 04/11/2010

The following buttons are available on this page
