Easily input hours for individual workers or entire crews. Allocate work hours to specific cost codes for easier budget tracking. Split hours between cost codes on overtime and other payroll specifications (OT, DT, RT, PT).
There are 2 types of "Work Logs" that can be entered. They each cover a unique use case:
Work Log: This open ended category lets you name a crew, person, or activity. You can then assign hours, quantity, description, and attachments to the hours logged.
Timecard: Helps keep track of your hours individually, or someone on your team. You can add a Classification, add one/many Cost Codes, and split hours between RT/OT/DT (done automatically!).
