Use this form to set up a cost price per hour transaction.

You can set up a standard cost price for the project category, or you can set up a cost price by worker number, project number, category, date, or any combination thereof. The cost price that is applied is the cost price with the highest level of detail.

Example

If a general cost price and a worker-specific cost price are set up, the system selects the worker-specific cost price when the worker enters transactions in the Hour journal.
