Pay Rates and Budget

Worker pay rates are important — they're used to calculate work order budgets:

  • Budget = Estimated hours × Average pay rate per department
  • When creating a work order, the system uses these rates to estimate costs
  • Actual costs are tracked as workers complete assignments
tip

Keep pay rates up to date to ensure accurate budget estimates on new work orders.
