Setting rates

There are 2 different types of rates in Billings Pro: a) Normal rate and b) Rate on a per-project and worker basis. Working from the Identity & Rates pane of Billings Pro, you can enter your normal rate. The normal rate is the default hourly rate that will be used for billing your clients. The rate you enter here is only applicable to the worker you are logged in as. Different workers connecting and using Billings Pro on their client machines can have different normal rates set up.

To specify your normal rate

  1. Choose Billings Pro > Preferences.
  2. Click the Identity & Rates tab.
  3. Enter your normal rate.
  4. Click Sync.

The normal rate can be overridden on a per-project and worker basis. For example, consider you are on a project where you must be paid a rate other than the normal rate for the work you will do. From the Workers tab of the project window, you must select the worker and allocate the hourly rate which will only be used for that project.

To specify rates on a per-project basis

  1. Create a new project or open an existing project.
  2. Click the Workers tab.
  3. Select a worker.
  4. Enter the hourly rate and mileage.
  5. Click OK.
