Field | Description |
Method
|
Select the labor method to determine how
Deltek extends labor charges on an invoice.
|
Overtime Method
|
Enter the method to use when extending overtime charges for labor charged to the
project. There are three overtime methods:
-
Bill ovt premium as cost: Bills the premium part of overtime at the end of the labor billing section, as if it were a cost.
The premium is the portion of overtime pay that is greater than straight time pay. To generate an overtime premium, at the time of labor costing, the
employee must have an overtime markup greater than 100%. The standard overtime markup is specified in the Job Cost
Ovt Pct field on the Accounting tab of the
Employee hub. Secondary overtime markup is specified in the Job Cost
Ovt-2 Pct field.
For standard overtime hours, you can apply a multiplier to the premium by entering one of the following in the
Ovt Multiplier field:
Overtime Multiplier
|
Result
|
1.0
|
Bills the premium at cost.
|
Greater than 1.0
|
Marks up the premium.
|
0.0
|
Prevents the premium cost from being billed.
|
If you track secondary overtime hours, you can enter a separate multiplier, just for secondary overtime hours, in the
Ovt-2 Multiplier field.
-
Sep ovt with
employee percent: Bills hours at a multiple of the
employee’s billing rate (set in
Employee hub) and separates standard and secondary overtime hours from regular hours on the invoice. Use this method to control labor billing markups by
employee.
-
Sep ovt with
project multiplier: Bills hours using a
project multiplier (set from Labor tab of Billing Terms) and separates standard and secondary overtime hours from regular hours on the invoice. Use this method to establish the same labor billing markup for all
employees working on the
project.
|
Multipliers
|
Enter the multipliers to apply to the labor billing amount. You can specify up to three multipliers. If you choose to show these multipliers, the first multiplier is included in the rate for the
employee (not shown on the invoice). The other two multipliers appear on the invoice at the end of the labor section. Labor multipliers are cumulative.
Deltek applies the first multiplier, then applies the second multiplier to the result, and so on.
|
Overtime Multiplier
|
Enter an overtime multiplier to use with
employees who receive a premium rate on overtime hours, rather than a straight time rate. For example, if you want to bill at the regular overtime rate, as specified on the Accounting tab of the
Employee hub, enter
1 here. If you want to bill the
employee's overtime hours using the straight time rate, enter
0.
The
employee must designate hours worked as overtime on his or her timesheet for this multiplier to be applied to overtime hours.
|
Overtime 2
|
Enter a percentage by which to multiply secondary overtime hours. Secondary overtime is overtime costed at a higher or lower rate than standard overtime (often at 200% of the
employee’s job cost rate).
Deltek applies the Overtime-2 Percentage you enter in the Ovt-2 Multiplier field to hours entered in the Overtime-2 fields on the timesheet and labor adjustment transaction entry forms and through the Time & Expense application.
Use this field in addition to the
Ovt-2 Pct field on the Accounting tab of the
Employee hub if you want to track secondary overtime in addition to standard overtime.
This field is available only if the secondary overtime feature is enabled on the Accounting System Settings form General tab ().
|
Rate Table
|
Enter or select the rate table that contains the
employee rates to use when generating the invoice for the
project. You must specify a rate table if you specified
, or
By
Labor Code as your labor method.
You can enter the full name or number of the rate table directly in this field, or use the
Search field to look up a rate table.
If you use multiple currencies, the list of available rate tables is limited to those with a currency matching the billing currency of the
project (as shown in the
Billing Currency field on the General tab of the Billing Terms form). If the drop-down list is blank, you must set up a rate table with the same currency as the
project's billing currency.
If your
firm has set
Record Level View access for billing rate tables, you may be limited to only those tables selected by your
Deltek administrator.
|
Override Table
|
Select the labor override table to use (if any) when calculating labor on the invoice. The override table stores exceptions to the
employee’s usual rate. You can specify an override table if you are using the
Rate Table,
Rate times multiplier,
By Category, or
By
Labor Code method for billing labor charges.

employee's name. When you select this option, you also select a billing rate table in the
Table field.
Deltek uses this table to determine the labor category description.
- Labor Code Description: Select this option to show only the
labor code description to identify a timesheet line item on a
project's invoices. This option is useful when you want to show the
labor code for a timesheet line item without displaying the
employee's name. When you select this option, you also select a billing rate table in the
Table field.
Deltek uses this table to determine the
labor code description.
- Table: This field is enabled if you selected
Labor Category Description or
Labor Code Description in the
Show
Employee As field. The table that you enter in this field determines the labor category or
labor code description that will show on a
project's invoices. Click
in this field to select a rate table from the Billing Rate Table lookup.
This field prefills with the following entries, which you can change:
- If you selected

By category or
By
labor code for both the billing method and primary sort method, the table that is entered for the sorting method prefills in the
Table field.
- Show Comments: Select this check box to show comments on the invoice.
Deltek prints one line for each
employee, including the
employee name, hours, rate (if the
Show Rates option is selected), and the extended amount. The comments print on an additional line beneath the
employee name.
If the same comment is entered on multiple lines for an
employee, the comments are consolidated into one line on the invoice. Timesheet lines with different comments display as separate lines on the invoice. Therefore, an
employee may appear several times on the invoice.
If you are using the
By
Labor Code method, one line appears for each
employee/comment/labor code combination for which the
employee has posted time.
-
Show Dates: Select this check box to print timesheet dates.
Deltek prints one line for each
employee, including the
employee name, timesheet date, hours, rate (if the
Show Rates option is selected), and the extended amount.

|
Select this check box to mark with an asterisk all
employee names on the invoice whose billing rates are derived/determined from an override table.
|
Use as
Project Reporting Default Terms Only
|
Select this check box to use the labor terms only on reports and not on billing invoices. When you select this check box,
Deltek uses the specified labor terms for:
-
Project reports for which you have chosen to use billing rates. (On the General tab of a
project report's options form, you use the
