Title: Actual Costs vs Standard Labor Rates
Post by Theran on 09/24/07 at 18:21:21

Use Actual Costs in Labor Entry?

If set to Y, the system will use labor rates from the employee file for job costing in the Work Orders and Job Costing modules. If set to N, the system will use standard labor rates from the work centers the labor takes place in.

I would like to use Standard Labor Rates for some work orders and Actual Hourly rates for others.

For example, I have one workorder for Downtime. Each employee is listed as a sequence / operation. They are also a Work Center. That's the only way I can have the cost of the downtime reflect the employees rate of pay and not a standard rate. Yet, I want Standard rates for my production work orders.

Is there a better way?
