Description | Enter a description for the labor hours. | ||
Internal tradesperson | An internal tradesperson can be specified on the order and automatically displayed in this field. You can also select a different internal tradesperson here. | ||
External co-worker's name | The name of an external co-worker that was entered by a field engineer on the Planon PMFS Live app . External co-workers are not registered in the Planon database, but their labor hours are registered on the order. | ||
Number of hours | This field is a calculated field if a Start date-time and End date-time are filled in for labor hours (for example via a Planon app). The difference between start and end date-time is populated. The number of hours can also be entered / edited manually. | ||
Start date-time | The time when actual work on the order (work assignment) was started. This time is used in the calculation of the Number of hours field. | ||
End date-time | The time when actual work on the order (work assignment) was ended. This time is used in the calculation of the Number of hours field. | ||
Tariff group | If a tariff group is specified on the order, it will be automatically displayed in this field. However, this value can be modified.
| ||
Hourly wage | Once the Tariff group field is specified, the hourly rate is automatically updated. This data can be modified. | ||
Surcharge hours % | A surcharge can be specified in this field, for example 150% for working during the night. | ||
Special tariff line | If special tariffs for overtime registration are applicable: select a relevant special tariff line from the list. Precondition: the internal tradesperson entered on this labor hours layout, must be linked to a special tariff group for working hours in Personnel . Special tariffs for working hours can be used instead of or in combination with surcharge percentages, to calculate the labor hours costs made during deviating working hours such as weekends or bank holidays. This functionality is typically used in configurations that include Planon Mobile Field Services (PMFS).
| ||
VAT amount (hours) | The VAT amount applicable to the labor hours is automatically specified. This is done on the basis of the VAT tariff entered in the VAT tariff field. The value can be modified manually. In this case the VAT tariff field is emptied. | ||
VAT tariff | Once the Tariff group field is specified, the corresponding VAT tariff is automatically updated. The suggested value can be modified. | ||
Costs excluding VAT | The total costs for labor hours excluding VAT: number of hours * tariff per hour. | ||
Costs including VAT | A calculation field for the total labor hour costs including VAT, namely: costs excluding VAT + VAT. | ||
Order | In this field the number and description of the selected order are automatically specified. | ||
AppSuite fields | |||
Finalized? | If the AppSuite setting Real-time updates? is set to Yes and time registration is finalized upon selecting the Pause action on the app, back-office staff can see in this field that the labor hour registration is actually finalized. This field is still editable in the back-office, while the labor hour record on the app has been made read-only. If the setting Real-time updates? is set to No, and if finalizing time registration is enabled for the Pause reason, labor hours records are finalized automatically if the field engineer selects Pause on the app. See Configuring labor hour registration | ||
