need to vary employee cost by type of project in PA

Posted on by 20

We need to vary employee cost by type of project in PA.  We thought it would be simple to (a) set a pay code for the two or three types (b) assign the codes to different cost categories and (c) attach these in project card, but this doesn't seem to work.  We are on v9 moving to v10 but want to solve this first.

We prefer not to use rate tables since it adds to maintenance burden.  Any ideas? Should it work?

    Hi Nick,

    Have you considered multiple cost categories per employee type and then in the settings selecting "default unit cost by cost category". We use separate cost categories and defined employee rates against these to give variable unit costs per employee. Or maybe brofit tupe er employee may be an option. Otherwise a long shot could be multiple versions of the employee, with an employee & rate per project type ?

    Good luck,

    Chris.
