  Small notes name what is missing: No estimate, Time not approved yet, Labor without a cost rate, Material costs pending, No price or invoice, Timer running.

Labor is recorded time times each person’s cost rate. Materials are those used on the job or bought for it (a setting in Field work → Settings), counting only lines with a known cost. Revenue is invoices, or the agreed price when none exists. Overhead is a separate line, shown only if you turned it on. Bills tied to the job count once, as described in “Supplier bills”.

Open the job in Field work and expand 💲 Job costing for estimated, actual and variance by labor hours, labor cost, materials and direct cost, plus “Gross profit so far”.

• Set each person’s cost rate in the Team tab so labor is priced.
• Approve hours so numbers become final.

• “Not enough data yet.” Record time or materials and check the date range.
• Labor without a cost rate. Set rates in Field work → Team.

• Job costing: entering actual costs on a job
• Review and approve hours worked
