Job Identification Fields

Job Id - Id of a job that closed during the period from Period Start Date though Period End Date. Note that PENTA may close the job (change the job Status to a D during revenue recognition) as of a date in a different period than when you changed the job Status to a C. This scenario can occur when you delay running revenue recognition for a period. For example, September 13 you change a job’s Status to C. September 14 you run revenue recognition for August 31. If the job has no costs or billings posted later than August 31, revenue recognition changes the job’s Status to a D as of August 31. This job appears on the August, not September, Closed Jobs Report.

OU Id - The OU Id of the job.

Job Name - The name of the job.

Job Information Fields

Date Job Closed - The date during the period from Period Start Date though Period End Date when PENTA changed the job Status to D (delete). PENTA changes the job status from C (closed) to D during the revenue recognition process and updates a PENTA- only accessible date. The report uses this date as the job closed date.

Actual Cost - The cost of the job through the Period End Date.

Earned Revenue - The revenue earned by the job through the Period End Date as calculated during the last execution of revenue recognition (when the job closed).

Gross Margin - PENTA calculates this value as: Earned Revenue – Actual Cost
