Definition |
Est Labor Days per month |
These fields calculate the estimated number of labor days required each month to complete this task. To find these values, the system performs the following calculations:
Est Labor Days per Month = (Est Quantity per Month / Quantity that can be done in one day) * (Total Crew Hours / # of Hours in a Labor Day) |
Actual Labor Days per month |
The Actual Labor Days fields are automatically populated based on the total number of hours entered in Work Orders in the system. Note: The work orders must have the same department as the task, the start and end dates must fall within the same fiscal year as the task, and the task must be assigned in the Tasks and Resources grid before this data can be populated. |
Totals |
The Total fields automatically calculate the total for both columns. |
% Labor Days YTD vs Planned |
This field calculates how much of the planned work remains in the fiscal year. The estimated amount is compared with the quantity of task asset units completed in actual work orders each month. |
