Expense Reports

A Material, Subcontractor or Misc Report can be used to handle your accounts payable. It will give you totals owed to each of your suppliers or subcontractors.

NOTE-- In 2000, MacNail was replaced by Goldenseal construction accounting software. Goldenseal is an integrated program that includes general accounting, job costing, payroll and project billing, plus estimating and other features. Goldenseal includes several expense reports.

It can also be used for the generation of 1099 reports, or for your own use in business management.

To use the MacNail construction accounting software to make a Materials report:
1. Choose *Reports from the DATA menu.
2. A dialog box will appear. Click on the buttons for Materials, and for Main File.
3. A second dialog box will appear. Make sure Unpaid only is checked, and click All items.
4. A new file will be created, showing a list of unpaid material items for each material supplier.

To post unpaid items to the Sample Ledger:
1. Mark the items you do not want to pay by typing any text (for example, an x) into the Check # column of the Material Report.
2. Choose *Post to Ledger from the DATA menu.
3. A dialog box will appear. Click the button for This File, and put a check next to Post Back to Logbook.
4. A list of Checkbook Ledgers will be shown. Choose the Sample Ledger.
5. All unmarked material items will be assigned a check number for payment. This check number will also be transferred back to the Sample Material Log.
