Using the Labor Page

The Labor page shows the hours your team has logged: by project, cost code, person or position, plus who's on the clock right now.

Who can use it

Owners, Administrators and Managers. Click Labor in the left sidebar. Each project also has a Labor tab. Members don't see either one.

Pick a view

Pick a view next to Group by: Project, Cost Code, Employee, Position or Timeclock. Inside a project, you get Cost Code, Employee and Position.

Filter	What it does
Select Project	Shows only the projects you pick.
Select Employee	Shows only the people you pick.
Status	On the Project and Cost Code views only. It starts on Active. If you pick projects in Select Project, those projects always show, whatever their status.
Date Range	Shows only hours worked between those days.

The Employee and Position views count every project, active or not.

Project and Cost Code views

These compare the hours you estimated with the hours your team has logged.

Column	What it shows
Estimated Hours	Labor hours on estimates that are Client Approved or Manually Approved.
Change Hours	Labor hours on approved change orders. A credit takes hours away.
Actual Hours	Hours your team logged. Lunch isn't counted here.
Remaining (Hours)	Estimated Hours + Change Hours − Actual Hours.
Remaining (Days)	Remaining (Hours) ÷ the Hours Per Day in Settings.
Percent Complete	Actual Hours ÷ (Estimated Hours + Change Hours).

As an example: 120 Estimated Hours + 8 Change Hours − 90.5 Actual Hours = 37.50 hours left. At 8 Hours Per Day, that's 37.50 ÷ 8 = 4.69 days. Percent Complete is 90.5 ÷ 128 = 70.70%.

Date Range filters Actual Hours by the day the work was done and Change Hours by the day the change order was approved. Estimated Hours aren't filtered by date.

Employee and Position views

These total each person's, or each position's, hours for payroll.

Column	What it shows
Total Hours	Every hour logged, Lunch included.
Lunch Hours	Hours logged to the Lunch cost group.
Net Pay Hours	Total Hours − Lunch Hours.

As an example, 4.5 hours framing + 0.5 hours Lunch + 3.5 hours trim = 8.50 Total Hours, 0.50 Lunch Hours and 8.00 Net Pay Hours. Lunch time always has a rate of $0.

Click a name on the Employee view to open that person's timesheet. See Viewing Timesheets.

Show Unbillable

On Cost Plus projects, hours marked unbillable are hidden until you turn on Show Unbillable. Hours on Fixed Cost projects always count. The switch starts off. Inside a project, it only shows on a Cost Plus project that has unbillable hours.

Timeclock view

Shows clock-ins from the mobile app, newest first, with Date, Project, Employee, Clock-In and Clock-Out. It refreshes every 10 seconds. It's on the main Labor page only.

Clock-Out shows	What it means
A time	They clocked out.
In Progress	They're on the clock now.
Paused	Their timer is paused.
Checked Out	The session is closed.
Unclosed	The session was left open more than 24 hours and they clocked in again.
