PJC Miscellaneous Expenses Screen
Use this field to enter or select an A/R item number to use for this miscellaneous expense on item invoices for time and materials projects and fixed price projects that use an item invoice type.
The A/R item record also supplies tax information for item invoices.
When you process transactions for time and materials projects and certain fixed price projects, you need to specify a billing rate.
Project and Job Costing lets you specify the billing rate to use when charging standard projects for the use of specific resources. (You specify billing rates at the category level for basic projects.)
Enter the amount at which to bill for this miscellaneous expense code and specified unit of measure.
If your Project and Job Costing is multicurrency, use the detail table to set up billing rates in all the currencies your customers use. Using a separate line for each currency, use the Currency Code Finder to select the currency, then use the Billing Rate column to enter the billing rate to use for each currency.

Project and Job Costing lets you define as many optional fields as you need for additional information that you want to store with setup records. You use the Optional Fields setup screen to define the optional fields that you want to use with different types of records.
Once you have defined optional fields for a type of record, you can assign the optional to specific records.
The Optional Fields check box indicates whether optional fields have been added to the selected record. If you set up optional fields for automatic insertion on the type of record you are working with, the Optional Fields check box will be selected for new records.
To check or change the optional fields added to a setup record, click the Zoom button beside the Optional Fields check box to open a separate Optional Fields screen for the setup record.

Overview
Use the Miscellaneous Expenses screen, available in the PJC Setup folder, to set up records for expenses for which no other resource setup screen (employees, equipment, and so on) exists, such as for permit or inspection costs.
Miscellaneous expenses are different from the charges you set up using the Charges screen. Miscellaneous expenses represent a cost to you that you pass on to your customer, whereas charges are used to record revenue items for which you incur no direct cost.
