Work Order Labor Rates

Work Order Overview Information Guide ->

Work Orders can use several different labor rates i.e. one Labor Rate for Customers and one Labor Rate for Internal Repairs.
 This is done using separate labor codes for each Labor Rate.

Work Orders charges to a customer would bill and post to the G/L at the selected labor rate.

The Internal Labor Code should only be chosen on Internal Work Orders, when the service is for repairs or additions to your own equipment.
 The G/L Account for Internal Labor Codes should be a Labor Recovery Expense Account or a Repair Expense Account or a Wage Expense account.
 This account would only be credited on internal repairs if Additions were made to equipment, i.e. the repair charges are capitalized and the value of the repair is added to the equipment.
 Refer to Close Internal Work Orders for details of the General Ledger posting.

Services specifically for Labor can be flagged as Type L when setup in Service Codes.
