Job Costing

Job costing is a form of specific order costing, which applies to a job undertaken according to customer requirements and specifications. Tally.ERP 9 enables the tracking of cost and revenue information down to the smallest detail. With a view to ascertaining the actual costs incurred for each job, each job is assigned a job number or Job name. Job costing systems then accumulate costs separately for each product or service, based on the jobs undertaken, for each product or service.

Some of the examples of Job Costing are Interior Decoratoration, Construction, Architecture, Printing etc.,
