Capacity - Capacity Rates
What is the Productivity %?
The Productivity % represents the estimated % of time that an employee will spend on billable activities. Enter the default % which will be applied to new employees. This % can be changed at the employee level under Capacity Summary
What is the Recovery %?
The Recovery % represents the estimated % of productive time which is billable. Enter the default % which is also shown under Capacity Summary This rate is applied at the Organisation level or Divisional level, meaning you cannot change the rate at the employee level.
How do you enter the Employee's Leave %?
The default leave %'s are entered under Capacity - Capacity Rates. These %'s can be adjusted at the employee level if required by expanding the employee dropdown under Capacity Summary;
Can an employee have a different Sell Rate for different Divisions?
Yes - if an employee is allocated to multiple divisions and the Sell Rate is different for each Division, then the Divisional Employee Rates box needs to be ticked. This will mean you will enter the Sell Rate for the employee at the Divisional level rather than the All Divisions level.
If it is not ticked, the Sell Rate for the employee will be the same for All Divisions, meaning it can be updated at either the Divisional or All Divisions level.
How can I setup different Sell Rates?
You can apply a default rate at either the Organisational or Divisional level. A Default Rate means that any new employee will be assigned this rate but it is possible to change the Sell Rate against the employee. If it was a Fixed Rate, the user cannot change the employee's hourly rate.
How do I include Contractor Hours in the Overhead Recovery?
If you have added Contractors that are "direct" (ie chargeable), they will be included in the Capacity Summary. Under Analysis, the Unit Cost calculates the Overhead cost per hour for the organisation by dividing the cost by the total billable hours. Tick this box if you would like contractors included in the total billable hours.
