Vendor Labor Subtask

You can open this subtask of the Manage Vendor History screen only after you highlight a row in the voucher detail and store information relating to one line in the voucher detail such as the vendor identifier, the General Labor Category, or the Project Labor Category.

This subtask is useful if you need to capture the total hours and amount of cost incurred against the project for vendors as well as employees. Capturing total hours and amount of cost against labor categories is essential for level-of-effort projects or projects for which you bill based on hours incurred against labor categories, apply fee on total hours, bill based on a percent of labor hours incurred, or track all hours charged against the project for project management. You can control this feature in the general ledger to prevent certain types of accounts from being charged during voucher entry.
