QicWorks uses Classifications to group together common Resource types. Classifications are not the individual Resource names, instead it is the group in which to Resource will be costed by. Classifications are used to calculate the net cost and billable rates for each of your resources.
Classification examples include Boilermaker Level 2, Supervisor, or 5T Truck.
Important! QicWorks allows you to add equipment as either a Material or as a Resource. It just comes down to how you wish to charge the equipment out and/or if you wish to schedule time for the item within QicWorks Job Schedule.
QicWorks goes one step further by allowing you to collect and report costs of your resource based on their Resource Type. Choose to report on:
Direct costs – such as labour, materials, equipment, or tools specifically allocated to the job. These items represent real cash overflows and must be paid as the job progresses.
Indirect costs – such as office overheads, utilities, general administration staff or project managers. Indirect costs are items that are unable to be charged direct to the client as part of the job.
Sub Contractor – Use this category to collect costs associated directly with subcontractor hire.
Equipment – such as equipment items you have purchased or hire for a specific job. Resources allow you to customise your individual resources ie John Smith, 50T Crane, 4” Angle Grinder .
Classifications must be created from within the Net Cost Table.
