Selling Labor - Technicians or Mechanics | Windward Point of Sale Features

You can create Sub Categories that are defined as being labor items. You can create one or many items in these sub categories for different types of labor such as shop labor, warranty labour, installation labor, etc. Each could have a different hourly rate. (Or unit rate if you bill by 6 min increments) Or you could have different flat rates for different types of work.

Optionally, when you sell a labour item, the system will ask you who is doing the work. This will let you enter the technician or mechanic, how much time they spent and how much time to bill for. Note that this will then let your print productivity reports showing time spent versus billed for different types of jobs and/or different technicians.

The system will then ask you for the description of what you did. The comment can be typed in on the fly or you can call up and re-use a canned comment in the system. If you perform a lot of repetitive jobs such as oil changes, you can reuse the same comment instead of typing it in over and over.

Generally speaking, the more you charge for the labor, the more you want to justify your work to the customer. Windward makes this easy by prompting you.
