Stock costs to Job Costing

Legacy Contributor

I have raised this as a support call, however there is no solution, so i wondered if anyone has had a similar problem and found a good workaround.

Raising a S/order and ticking P/O for items that need to be ordered in for the Order. I can assign cost codes correctly for these items and they show as Commitments OK.
Problem is when i raise a S/order for an item that is already in stock (so no need for P/O tick), although it allows me to Job Cost it, I cannot pick the Cost Code for the Expense (I can for the Revenue side).
I have an XRL report that gives me the lines that are not P/O ticked and so need to be manually costed to the jobs, however, to do the proper costing, i need to do Issues from Stock and pick the Job. This means they are issued twice (once through stock, and the other through the S/order when it is delivered).
Is this as clear as mud?
Anyone had something similar??
Any views appreciated.
Gale.

I *think* we had a similar requirement a while back - I had to bespoke SOP to present another form at the detail line level so that an expense code could be entered, and then change the posting code so that job costing would be updated accordingly.
