How do I attach costs to a job?

Question

Accepted Answer

On a computer: Jobs in the sidebar → open the job → + Attach a cost to this job, then pick the expense.

On your phone: Jobs in the Menu tab → open the job → + Attach a cost to this job.

Costs are what turn a job from revenue into profit. The list offers expenses you have already logged that are not on a job yet, so log the receipt first on Expenses (or scan it with Des) and then attach it. Until something is attached, DeskOps reports that job's margin as unknown rather than as 100% — a job with money in and nothing out is one whose costs it has not been told about, not a job that cost nothing.
