Vendor Labor Subtask

Use this subtask of the Manage Invoices screen to view and/or edit information relating to the total hours and cost amount charged against the various labor categories for the given invoice line.

This subtask is useful if you need to capture the total hours and currency units incurred against the project for vendors as well as employees. Capturing total hours and currency units against labor categories is essential for projects for which you:

  • Bill based on hours incurred against labor categories
  • Apply fee on total hours
  • Bill based on a percent of labor hours incurred
  • Track level of effort projects
  • Track all hours charged against the project for project management

You cannot modify this screen for vendor labor information that was auto-created by the process based on timesheets. When manually entering invoices, the default for the project labor category (PLC) come from the work assignment resource (vendor employee) or from the work assignment. You can edit these defaults.
