Hi Lilah,

We are a cost plus  company and create a Change Order cost code, which allows clear tracking of labor/materials costs, either as a Job Cost or Subcontract, on the Job Cost Journal. Otherwise it is difficult to get a clear separation of contract cost v change order costs.

So, what do you do for the change order code?  Have one for material and one for labor?  What if you have multiple change orders going on at the same time? How would you track that?  This is something that would be HUGE for my company to figure out.  Currently we create a new job to track them, but then I have to move each line item once completed.  We could have multiple change orders going on at the same time for one job, so it creates some challenges.  

I am following this as we are having the same problem with multiple change order tracking solutions
