Pro Rate and Duplication Rule

Pro Rate and Duplication Rule

Project Settings - Pro-Rate and Duplication Rule

Pro-Rate Feature
  • The Pro-Rate feature, when activated, will automatically calculate a labor's Associated Fees based on an 8 hour workday.

  • Example: if the daily rate for a given vehicle is $50.00 and labor only works 4 hours, the program bills $25.00 [1/2 day = 1/2 rate, etc.]

  • If labor works more than 8 Hours in a day, the program caps the item at the daily rate.

  • When the pro-rate feature is disabled, the program bills the vehicle at the full daily rate of $50.00 by default.

Duplication Feature
  • If duplicate entries are detected, the program will flag each occurrence by highlighting it in Yellow, as shown below.

  • The Duplication feature is enabled by default, but can be disabled temporarily in certain instances.




Why disable the Duplication Rule?  You may have an individual laborer that works on different allocations or labor classes in a single day, resulting in multiple inputs for that individual.
