Overview
In INGENIOUS.BUILD, each employee is assigned a job role and corresponding labor rate based on your company’s standards. These labor rates integrate seamlessly with cost management and resource planning features, ensuring accurate project budgeting and forecasting.
Prerequisites
An employee must be created before a job role and/or labor rate can be assigned to them. Only Accounting, Administrator, IT Administrator, or Project Executive account types can add/edit Roles and Labor Rates.
Process
Access Roles & Rates
In the left-hand navigation, click Employees.
Select Actions > Roles & Rates.
Add a New Role
Click Add Role to create a new role.
Fill out the required fields associated with the role.
Note: If an employee has multiple billable roles, their Total Cost by Hour will impact the Average Total Cost per Hour across all assigned roles. If the Average Total Cost per Hour shows $0.00, ensure their salary or hourly rate is entered in their employee profile.
Reorder Roles
Drag and drop roles to adjust their order in the list as needed.
Save Changes
Click Save to confirm and apply your updates.
By following these steps, you can efficiently manage job roles and labor rates for your team, enhancing cost accuracy and resource allocation in INGENIOUS.BUILD.
