In order to record actuals for a Labor Transaction, must a GL Account be specified?

In Maximo, when recording actuals for a Labor Transaction, it is not necessary to specify a GL Account. This allows for flexibility in managing labor transactions without needing to tie every entry to a specific general ledger account. The Labor application in Maximo is designed to capture labor details such as the worker, task performed, and hours worked without the constraint of linked financial accounting systems for every entry.

While there may be scenarios where specifying a GL Account can provide better tracking for internal purposes or reporting, it is fundamentally structured so that users can log labor information effectively without that requirement. This design supports ease of use, enabling users to focus on tracking labor activities efficiently without being bogged down by financial coding at every step.
