It seems that DJM could be "drobný jednicový materiál" but there is not much references around for that. My dictionary states "direct material" for "jednicový materiál" which goes for small items

Explanation:
“Raději mi někdo řekněte, co je to ta položka ‘DJM’?”
“Drobný jednotlivý materiál (mazivo, spojovací materiál atd). Mám to ve faktuře taky napsané....hned jsem se ptal servismana, co to znamená”

(Personally, I think he misheard the “jednotlivý”, but more importantly he explains what it is.)

Back in the UK, an MOT man explains what might be included in “sundries”
http://thegarageblog.co.uk/2008/11/04/starbucks-oil-and-sund...

and in a vehicle repair court case: “amounts charged for labour and painting, paint materials and sundries”
