Booking Labor tracks the number of hours employee has worked on for each work order’s activity.
While on a Work Order, go to the Book Labor ribbon/tab.
1. Select the Activity that was worked on from the drop-down.
NOTE: This field displays the activity’s sequence and name to eliminate confusion on the type of work done.
2. Select the employee(s):
a. The Employee field by entering your ID.
OR
b. The Crew field by entering the Crew’s ID or clicking on the dataspy.
If the crew has a sudden change, please go to Booking Labor for Multiple Employees.
3. Enter or select the date in the Date Worked field.
4. Enter the number of hours worked in the Hours Worked field.
NOTE: If booking labor for a crew, the amount of time has to be multiplied by the amount of people in that crew.
5. Enter the Book Labor Description on what was done, i.e. cleaning up or other pertinent details to labor tracking.
6. Click on the Save icon which will show labor booked for this work order.
The process is the same as booking labor for individual employees. This solves the challenge if our crews may have a sudden change.
1. Select your Activity.
2. Enter or select your Date Worked.
3. Enter the hours worked in the Hours Worked field.
Example: Enter the specific hours staff each worked. If we have 3 staff work 4.5 hours, enter 1.5 hours in the Hours Worked field.
4. Click on the Employee(s).
Click on the check box to the left of the the employee ID numbers to select multiple staff persons who worked.
To make a search within a user's current division, change the dataspy from (default) to My Division.
5. Click on the Save icon.
Users also have the option to book labor for a selected route that the employees or crew worked on. A route is a list of selected sites that a crew will visit in a work request. This feature simplifies assigning labor for the route rather than selecting each site individually.
To book labor using routes, follow these steps.
