Modified Surcharges Program to Include Job Field and Hour Field

Why is it Useful?

CMiC has added two new fields to the Surcharges screen: Job Code field and Hour Type field. This will allow users to calculate add-ons/surcharges for specific jobs and hour types and then specify to which bill code the add-on/surcharge will be applied.

NOTE: This feature was released in Patch 14-1 under Issue 20.18406.

How Does it Work?

Pgm: JBSURCHG – Billing Time Surcharges; standard Treeview path: Job Billing > Setup > Local Tables > Surcharges

The Job Code column and the Hour Type column are located on the Surcharges screen.

Job Code

The Job Code LOV shows all jobs for the company, including ‘*’ for all jobs.

Hour Type

The Hour Type LOV shows hour types for the company, including ‘*’ for all hour types.

Job Code, Cost Code, and Category are required fields. For the Hour Type field, a null value will be considered as "All hour types" while calculating surcharge.

The surcharge calculation has been modified to consider the new fields.

Pgm: JBBILL2 – G/C Prepare Bill; standard Treeview path: Job Billing > Billing > G/C Prepare Billing

NOTE: Surcharges use the Billing Rate column of the Billing Rate table only. WM of the surcharge billing rate must be HR.

Pgm: JBRATE – Billing Rates; standard Treeview path: Job Billing > Setup > Local Tables > Billing Rates
