    4. Hours and labour cost

      Hours come from the timers: on site, travel and trips for materials. Labour cost is these hours multiplied by the cost rate you set in Rates.

    5. Billed and profit

      Billed to client splits the amount into labour and materials. Profit estimate is revenue minus labour cost and expenses. It is a rough number, not the profit in your accounts.

    6. Each employee

      The Employees table shows the hours, cost, billed amount and finished jobs of each person. With Export CSV you can open the table in Excel.

    7. Compare months

      Switch the period and all numbers are worked out again. Here is last month: what you earned and how much of it is still unpaid.

    8. Efficiency

      Here Estimate is the time planned for the jobs and Actual is the time on the timer. Above 100% means the person works faster than planned.
