To calculate labor utilization rates, Costpoint Analytics must be able to identify hours and amounts that represent direct labor, and hours and amounts that represent leave.
Use the Define Direct Labor and Leave based on the following options and the table below those options to specify either the accounts or project classifications and project types associated with direct labor and leave.
These settings apply to the detailed Labor Utilization Analytics in Costpoint Analytics – Employee and to the summary Labor Utilization Analytics in Costpoint Analytics – Summary.

Click Define Direct Labor and Leave based on the following to display the options.

For each account or project classification/project type combination that represents direct labor, enter Yes in the Direct Labor (Yes/No) column of the table.
To make an entry, position the mouse pointer over the table cell. When
