PROBLEM
getting
zero for 'total cost' in material log within MacNail accounting software
DIAGNOSIS
1. if in just one row-- check for non-numbers in 'units' and 'unit price' columns.
2. If in more than one row, check the Master Index-- make sure sales tax is 1 or close for every material
supplier.
3. If that still doesn't fix it, check the heading in row 2 of the Master Index for the sales tax column
4. If that still doesn't fix it, maybe it's missing lookups
SOLUTION
1. May have to retype
them, watching to not use letter L or O instead of numbers
2. It's
a multiplier, so if zero or blank, it reduces material costs to zero! If 7% tax, type 1.07.
3. Heading should be MTAX.
4. Choose Lookup Formulas from Formula menu to put them back into MacNail Construction
Accounting Software.
