Flat Rate Resource
Below you will find a step by step guide on how to enter a Default Flat Rate for Pricing Labour.
Entering a default flat rate for pricing Labour:
The default flat rate is the hourly charge-out rate that is automatically applied across all work sections (subheadings) upon importing the job file. You must have a default rate, though this can then be supplemented by adding as many additional charge-out rates as you wish.
Remember that labour factors always calculate time based on a single worker. If the software says a work section will take 3 hours that is 3 hours for a single worker. Obviously with 2 workers on the job that same work section will only take 90mins. To that end your labour rates must be either a flat rate or, if factoring in varying charge-out rates for different workers, it must be the average.
e.g. 3 workers in my work gang with charge-outs of $60/hr, $55/hr and $35/hr. 60+55+35 = 150 / 3 = $50hr flat rate.
- Go to the Estimate Settings heading and select Flat Rate Resource.
2.Click on the Default rate to select it and click the Edit button above
3. Enter your flat rate and hit the save button.
- Once you have entered your Default rate, feel free to use the Add button to input as many other charge-out rates as you wish.
