Name

Identifies the item.

Code

Assigns an alternate identifier for the item. This code will appear on most reports.

Job Category

Allows you to associate a job with a job category.

Master Job

Allows you to configure jobs from different properties and link them to a Master Job. For example, if you have Cook1 at three properties, you could set the Master Job (Division/Department/Job) to Kitchen/Cook/Cook1 and the information from all Cook1's will be displayed in reports as the same job.

Variance Percentages

Defines a tolerance range for acceptable variances between projected hours/scheduled hours or standard hours/actual hours.

• Projected—Defines the tolerance range used when comparing the percentage of projected hours to scheduled hours. Any variance that falls outside the range you specify is noted in the Weekly Forecast Exception Report. For example, if the acceptable variance is from -5 to +7, you would enter 5 in the From field and 7 in the To field. 
• Standard—Defines a tolerance range to be used when comparing the percentage of standard hours to actual hours. Any variance that falls outside the range you specify is noted in the Hours Variance Analysis.  For example, if the acceptable variance is from -5 to +7, you would enter 5 in the From field and 7 in the To field.  
  
  An entry in these fields overrides the entry you made in the Configure Property/Labor-Scheduler tab.

Productivity
                                      

Determines the work rate associated with this job. For example, how fast can a job be accomplished, how many of X can be produced when performing this job, etc. This information is only used  for the Labor Productivity Report.

• Name—Determines which KBI is used in the calculation.
• Units—Determines the type of measurement used in the calculation.
• Goal—Allows you to enter the number you are striving to achieve in this job. For example, assuming that this is the Houseman job and you selected Minutes/Unit in the Units drop-down, you may enter 12 in the Goal field, meaning you expect one room to be cleaned in 12 minutes.
