5.10.00 Account Codes

Cost Codes & Account Codes video

Account Codes are codes used to match Quick Bid Cost Codes to your company's Accounting software.  Use the same account codes that your Accounting software uses or create new ones as needed. 

Account Codes can be associated with a single Labor Cost Code or multiple but each Cost Code can only be associated with a single Account Code.  You map Cost Codes to Account Codes in the Cost Code list.

To create a new Account Code,

• Click Master > Account Codes - the Account Code (Master) dialog opens (this list can also be accessed from the Cost Code list by typing in an Account Code that does not already exist in the database)
• Click New or press <Insert> on your keyboard - a blank line is inserted at the end of the list
• Enter the Account Code and Description in their respective fields
• Click OK to exit the dialog

Many Quick Bid Reports and Exports can be set to display Account Codes instead of Cost Codes - see Chapters 12 and 13 for more information.  Miss specifying an Account Code?  That is OK, the Reports will automatically switch to Cost Code for any Cost Codes that do not have an associated Account Code.
