How does Sage Construction Management set the Cost and Bill Rates for Approved Timecards?
- Labor Code | Project | Payroll Item
If a Labor/Craft Code is specified on the timecard record, the system will do a lookup on the payroll rate table within the Labor Item Details form to set the cost and bill rate. The project and payroll item referenced on the timecard will be the filter criteria. - Employee | Project | Payroll Item
If no Labor Code is specified, the project specific rates table in the Employee Details form will be reviewed to determine if there is a special cost and bill rate for that employee and project. - Employee | Payroll Item
If none of the above conditions are met the system will use the standard/default payroll rates table in the Employee Details form to determine the cost and bill rate.
