Labor Categories group labor costs on T&M bills based on Craft and Class combinations. Costs without a matching Labor Category won’t appear on the bill if billing is rate-based.
Creating and Using Labor Categories
Open Labor Categories Form:
Press F5 on the Labor Categories field in a JB T&M Template
orOpen JB T&M Labor Categories Program from the Vista Main Menu.
Create a Labor Category:
Assign sequences to determine which costs are included based on Craft and Class.
Example:
Sequence 1: Restrict by Craft only → all costs with that Craft go into this Labor Category.
Sequence 2: Restrict by Craft and Class → only costs matching both go into this category.
Miscellaneous Labor Category:
Optional category to catch all costs not included in other categories.
Once set up, costs will automatically pull into the appropriate Labor Category on T&M bills.
