Require Job & Item/Code on Time Entries

Enhance time tracking accountability by requiring the selection of a job and a cost item or code when employees clock in. This new setting will minimize time-tracking errors by ensuring that time entries are accurately tied to the correct projects and tasks.

Track Cost & Time by Cost Code

Choose how you would like to track and project job costs, whether you prefer a more detailed approach using cost items or more broadly by cost code. This allows you to build detailed estimates using cost items and easily view your budget by cost code once the job is underway. Employees can select a cost code for each time entry when logging time and bills can be reconciled to cost codes to simplify the billing process. When tracking by cost code, all projections will be aggregated at the code level in the job budget as well as the Work in Progress (WIP) report.

Archive Cost Types and Codes

Manage your job costing settings by archiving or deleting outdated units of measurement, cost types, and cost codes. Archiving removes these options from dropdown lists when creating and editing cost items, decluttering your interface and improving usability. If any unit, type, or code is still in use, JobTread will prompt you to replace it with an alternative before deletion, ensuring a seamless transition and preventing any disruptions. Additionally, nest your cost codes into parents to further organize your code list.
