Small businesses need to have multiple time billing rates for each employee. At the moment we are restricted to only one. It would be great if it can be increased to a minimum of 5.

I just wrote a lengthy reply and I got ticket mismatch error... that might be another one to add to the fix it list...
- There are too many additional factors for most billable items that I can't see the customer charge rate being relevant to most users
- It would be good if a list of combinations (employee, activity and rate) could be saved to the job card. Allowing you to replicate the same combination each month and just input the time unit completed.
- Once the combination is determined for a job it is unlikely to change so it makes sense to save it.
- If the combination rate did change there is likely to be associated paper to acknowledge the agreement so you may as well start a new job card anyway.
- Having to recreate the combinations on each job card isn't a big deal as this solution would be saving you so much time and input.
- A list with combinations from every job would be totally impractical and this is obviously why you haven't done it, but at the specfic job level it makes a lot of sense.
- The cost rate isn't that relevant as most of our employees are on a fixed salary or they are contractor who submits an invoice and we've already raised a PO as a cost of sale. It would be pretty rare for an employees cost to change per job and activity. If it did you would be more like to agree to a percentage of the billables rather than a unit rate.
I would like to add at least 5 more votes on behalf my colleagues!
