Setting Up Job Code Margin Indicators
The margin represents the amount of money that you make for every hour that a person works. Set up margin indicators by job code to indicate at what percentages the system triggers caution and critical warning indicators on the Assignment page. The margin calculation on the Assignment page subtracts costs from the bill rate, divides by the bill rate, and then multiplies by 100. Costs take into account pay rate, overhead costs, and workers' compensation premiums.
This topic discusses how to set up job code margin indicators.
