Select Payroll Setup menu > Labor Code Maintenance.

Use Labor Code Maintenance to create and maintain labor codes identifying the type of work performed by each employee. These codes are used to produce the Labor Distribution Report, which recaps labor costs by labor code.

You can enter an override wage expense account number to use in place of the wage expense account number defined in Department Maintenance or Earnings Code Maintenance. If the Job Cost module is integrated with Payroll, you can also use Labor Code Maintenance to enter an override burden rate to use in place of the standard burden rate defined in the Job Cost module. Labor codes can represent a type of work performed, a union affiliation, or a special code to speed data entry of a frequently used job number and cost code combination. Labor codes can be assigned to employees in Employee Maintenance. The labor code and associated information is applied automatically for each employee in Payroll Data Entry. Labor codes are also used to sort employee earnings information on the Labor Distribution Report.

When you have entered labor code information, you can print a Labor Code Listing.
