Create job journal lines from planning lines
With job planning lines, you can budget the expected consumption of resource time, materials, and G/L expenses, which means that the job planning lines contain the information that you need to post the consumption of resource time or material consumption to a job.
With the Qty. to Transfer to Journal field, you can enter the quantity that you want to transfer to the job journal.
The preceding screenshot shows a job planning line for 10 hours of resource MARY. The user has entered 4 in the Qty. to Transfer to Journal field, which means that if you select Process and then select Create Job Journal Lines, Business Central creates a job journal line for resource MARY with a quantity 4.
