Labor Rates and Overtime

Admins can associate a labor rate with a user to calculate labor cost in reports

Updated over 5 months ago

Admins can link labor rates to users on their profile form for regular time, overtime, and double overtime. When a user that's assigned to a work order finishes, they enter the time spent. The rate is never displayed, but their time is linked to their labor rates. This then calculates labor costs in reports. This guide shows you how.
