Select the Action Tab on the Menu ribbon.There are two steps involved in running the WIP Process: Calculating WIP and Posting WIP to the G/L. However, unlike Percent of Completion, the calculation is based on the expected price of the actual consumption rather than the cost. This method is based off usage and revenue recognized based on a percent of usage much like Percent of Completion. Unlike Percent of Completion, where revenue is booked based on the percent of work completed, they recognize revenue when it is billed to the customer. These methods are based on the principle that revenue should be recognized in the same period it is booked. Once the job is completed, all cost consumed and revenue invoiced will be booked to the Income Statement. Only when the job is completed will there be any recognition of cost and revenue to the income statement. This method will post all cost consumption and sales invoices to the WIP Balance Sheet Accounts. The interim WIP entries are reversed, and the actual cost and revenue are booked into the income statement accounts. At the end of the project, the job is changed to “completed” status. The percent of usage consumed is then applied to the Total Contract (referred to as Billable in later versions) Price to determine the amount of revenue to book. Therefore, the more accurate the job cost estimates are the better the WIP entries track and report the cost. This method is based on the percentage of usage consumed compared to the Total Scheduled (referred to as Budgeted in later versions) Usage. The most commonly used methods in the US and in accordance with North American Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) are Percent of Completion and Completed Contract.
