The accounting software automatically collects entries that you make for accounts payable, accounts receivable and payroll and posts them to the general ledger. You may also make miscellaneous journal entries to the general ledger. CPAs often recommend JOBPOWER to their contractor clients because of the software's complete financial audit trail and controlled ledgers. You don't need to know debits and credits because when you enter invoices, checks, billings, payroll, etc., the software makes accounting entries to the general ledger automatically.

JOBPOWER knows how to generate financial statements for the special needs of the construction industry. You select the format to meet your requirements:
• Percent of job completion basis (uses over/under billings)
• Completed job basis (open jobs are on the balance sheet)
• Current basis (open jobs are on the income statement)

Do you need a financial statement based on percent of job completion? JOBPOWER knows how to prepare one.
The software uses the costs, income, contract amount, and budgeted cost to calculate over/under billings
for each relevant job. This is just one of the many construction specific features of JOBPOWER.
The software prints an Entry Journal each time you enter vendor invoices, print customer billings, post
inventory to a job, or make any other entry to the general ledger. The Entry Journal shows the effect
of the accounting entries on the general ledger. To research a general ledger account, print the
Account Transaction History report to see the transactions for a specified period of time.
The well designed accounting software means that you can be confident that all your accounting
ledgers are in balance. In the general ledger, total debits always equal total credits. Accounts
Payable and Accounts Receivable report totals equal the general ledger account balances for those
accounts. The Check Register balance for each bank account is the same amount as the general
ledger balance for each cash account. The Job Ledger report totals equal the general ledger
accounts for job labor, job material, etc.
