Default Labor

[itognet]

I can see, that I can specify a default labor in a contract. Which is good.

but.
It is possible to specify a default labor for the Global System Contract ?

Or is it possible to specify a global system default labor for all accounts at once ?

Re: Default Labor

itognet,

When having Contracts records you can indeed select default Items for Labor, Expense and Parts so when a new Charge is added under this contact the default item is automatically selected for the new charge based on the charge type (labor/expense/part).

The global system contract is a "virtual" contract that can be used whenever no other contract is defined for the account. As it is "virtual" you cannot set default items to it. I can see how this may help and logged this as a feature request.

Thanks,
Sherry

Commit 9 years and why is this still not a feature? Or is there a work around?

Re: Default Labor

Thank you for posting this and asking. Good timing - Default Items can already be set for your Contracts. Support to settings such default Items to the 'Global System Contract' is coming in our next new version (23).

Hope this helps.
