Timecards module
Our time center is designed to track the duration of labour and equipment. We give the ability to add materials logs, track and report on Labour (People), Equipment and Materials in the same interface.
The difference for materials is that we track the quantity and look at the value instead of the hourly rate, whereas for labour and equipment, we track the duration.
In the Timecards module you are also able to view the material logs and which materials were assigned to which user within a selected time period.
When tracking time, you can let your users add materials with their time tracking. This allows you to attribute materials usage both to the user and the project.
