Manage Labor Codes

Labor codes are used to specify pay rates for users and billing rates for labor on invoices.  The same set of codes are used throughout your company's instance of CorrigoNet, but the rates applied for each purpose can be different.  After you define the codes, you set the pay rates when you add personnel and the billing rate when you create contracts.
