Set Up Master with Clawback Open Unders and Overs at Current Rate

Scroll Prev Top Next More

A master has two colour machines with a minimum volume for both black and colour. Open unders and overs are clawed back on the current rate (OBC). There is a minimum of 10,000 pages for black and 2,000 pages for colour.

The first month's reads are exactly the same as this example. The master job is created without leaving unders open. The jobs created are exactly the same.

 

In the following month, the first machine receives reads of 36,000 (7,000 pages) black and 12,300 (800 pages) colour, and the second receives reads of 58,000 (5,000 pages) black and 9,400 (400 pages) colour.

 

The master job this time is created by clicking Generate Job Unders Open. The following warning is displayed. The reason this warning is displayed is because you are opting to leave unders open, however every meter is being billed this period, and Jim2 expects by default that you will close off the period, and not leave unders open. Click Yes to override.

Once jobs have been created for the two children and the master, they will appear as follows:

Machine 1

 

clawback all current rate2

Machine 2

Master

 

Note that no unders or overs are clawed back. Because the first month was not billed with Leave Unders Open, they are effectively closed off to the second period.

 

The third month reads of 40,000 (4,000 pages) black and 13,800 (1,500 pages) colour for the first machine, and reads of 61,000 (3,000 pages) black and 10,400 (1,000 pages) colour for the second machine,

 

The master was billed with Leave Unders Open, although this only affects the calculation for future months, not the current month.

 

Once jobs have been created for the two children and the master, they will appear as follows:

 

clawback all current rate3a

Machine 1

 

clawback all current rate3b

Machine 2

 

clawback all current rate3c

Master

 

We can see only 2,000 black overs/unders were clawed back, which was the amount of unders billed in month 2, even though there were 3,000 billed in month 3. With colour, all 500 overs charged in month 3 are clawed back because there were 800 unders charged in month 2.

 

The invoice for this master as a whole would be (10,000 X 0.01 + 2,500 X 0.1 = 350.00 less the unders clawed back from month 2 (-2,000 X 0.01 –500 X 0.1 = 70.00).

 

This would produce an invoice for 280.00 ex tax.
