Job Inquiry (2 of 2) (JOB3)

Job Inquiry (JOB2 and JOB3) windows contain all descriptive and summary level information about a job. The information in these windows is maintained by the system as a result of the Job Control (JB) documents processed by the system. Lines are added to these windows (JOB2 and JOB3) when new jobs recorded on Job Control (JB) documents are accepted. Lines are updated by modifications submitted on a Job Control (JB) document.

Job Inquiry (JOB2 and JOB3) also store current period and year-to-date balances of charges, billings, and receipts for each job. This information is a result of Job Charges (JC) documents and the various accounting documents that apply charges or receipts to jobs. These windows display one line entry for each open job. Closed jobs remain available for viewing until one month after they are closed. At that time, they are purged from the database by the Job Summarization and Purging program.
