Summary
Labor Levels
The
Labor Levels section allows you to choose from different configurations, where you
manage the levels and departmental hierarchy for your company. It’s critical to properly
configure your company’s labor levels and to fully understand the concepts of this feature.
Labor Levels track where employees spend their time. You may associate costs with labor
levels and assign employees to more than one level.
Note that employees are only able to clock into the labor levels to which they’re
assigned.
Define Labor Levels
The Define Labor Levels link allows you to create up to 15 different labor levels. For
example, you may define labor levels as region, location, and department. In this instance
your company would have three labor levels. Note that you must complete this step before
proceeding to Setup Labor Levels.
Setup Labor Levels
Setup Labor Levels enables you to define the sub-levels of your pre-defined labor levels. In
the above example, we have defined three labor levels as region, location, and department.
You could drill down further per level. Under Region, you might have Northeast, Northwest,
etc. Under locations, you might have a New York Office, and under departments, you may
have a sales department.
Assign Labor Levels to One Employee
The Assign Labor Levels to One Employee link allows you to assign one employee to any
defined labor levels.
Assign Labor Level to Multiple Employees
The Assign Labor Level to Multiple Employees option allows you to assign multiple
employees to any defined labor levels.
NOTE: The Assign Labor Level descriptions above are only for assigning
additional labor
levels to the employees
NOT for assigning the default labor levels. Default labor levels are
assigned in the employees “edit employee” screen.
