There are times when a Pay Calc Expense account needs to have a number that is not within the range of the name of the field. For instance, in the 5-3-1 screen, the Job Expense usually has an account in that range. There are times when this field might need a liability account or an overhead account. Until now, this was not an issue.
With the version 26.x release, you have to choose Options, then ‘Allow use of non-standard accounts’ in order to use an account outside the range of the field. Otherwise, it will not accept your selection. When you type a different number, it will just clear that field. Didn’t see this in the release notes! Thanks Sue!
One warning: this plays havoc with fully burdened job costs, so you’ll want to think these selections through!—CMW
