Job Costing
Job Costing summarizes labor hours and projected labor cost by customer location for a selected pay period. It uses timesheet entries and employee hourly labor costs.
Job Costing requires pay period access. Pay periods require the Team plan or higher and depend on Timesheets being enabled.
