job order

Task assignment form

A job order is a document authorizing specific work to be performed, typically in manufacturing or service industries.

It details what needs to be done, materials required, and costs involved: The shop received a job order for fifty custom brackets.

In job order costing, expenses are tracked for each individual project rather than averaged across production.
