Select or change the Billable Rate Schedule for this project.
The Billable Rate is only used for billing customers for cost-plus project or any project wherein you are to bill for your employees time on the project. Selecting a Billable Rate Schedule does not automatically include the time for that project on any reports, it simply establishes the rate schedule to be used IF any employee's time is specifically indicated as billable on their time sheet.
You are not required to select a billable rate schedule for a project. TimeTrax will use Schedule A as the default schedule in the event you do not make a selection.
TimeTrax provides up to 5 different rate schedules, all customized by you, so you can have different rates for different projects as contractual conditions warrant. In addition, employees hours are not included in a Billable Hours report unless specifically indicated on the employee's time sheet.
|
When you select a rate schedule for a project, this box will display the current billable rates by Job Title for that Rate Schedule for your review. These rates were supplied by you when you created your list of Job Titles. You cannot add to or edit the Billable Rates from the Projects Dialog Box, the information is displayed to help you select the appropriate schedule for the project.
You may change the actual Billable Rates in the Job Titles Dialog Box.
