Labor Department Hierarchy

Labor Department Hierarchy

Department- Enter the Dept the labor was performed in or press Enter to accept the default Department. The department is used to generate the accounting entries for any labor time entered on a Work Order.

  • Each labor entry added to a Work Order must have a department. The order in which the system will look for a department is shown below.
    1. The system will check the Labor Department field in the Operation Code File.
    2. The system will check the Work Order Category Code; if there is one defined on the work order, it will check the Labor Department field on this work order category code.
    3. The system will check the Department field in the Technician File.
    4. If a department is not found in either place, the default GL Accounts found on the Service Parameters will be used.
