Definition

Please enter the adjustment account number into this field.

This adjustment account will be used to post the adjusted overhead amount into the income statement. This usually happens when we need to charge an extra cost to a certain overhead.

For example, the overhead expense on the book is $100. But, we need to charge extra $50 on top of what is incurred. So, we post $150 as billable expense and credit back in our book for this extra $50. This will balance out our book for the overhead expense, and at the same time charge our partner for the right amount.
