Updated over 4 months ago

The basic information for your company can be updated in the Configuration menu, or by clicking on your company name in the top left corner of the page.

Basic information about your company includes:

  • Company Legal Name

  • Address, City, State, Zip, & Country

  • Phone & Fax Numbers

  • Company logo

Additional company information can only be updated in the My Company section of the Configuration Menu. This information includes:

  • Verification Request Settings

  • Timekeeping & Payroll Settings

  • Revenue Accounting Options


1. Update Company Information

Follow the steps below to access and update your company's information.

Steps:

  1. From Configuration, locate "My Company" (under the heading: Controls)

  2. Alternatively, click on RedTeam Flex in the top left corner of the page and click "Edit"

  3. Modify the company information fields as needed

  4. Update any settings and options as needed

  5. Click "Save"


2. Configure Timekeeping and Payroll Settings

The Timekeeping and Payroll settings will determine how labor is posted to job cost in your Projects. For these settings you have two options:

Option 1: Use Actual Payroll Rates by Employee for Job Cost

This option will post job cost based on the user's pay rate (which is updated in the Employee's profile) plus the Labor Burden rate you enter here in Configuration.

Example: Employee has a pay rate of $50/hour with a 50% Labor Burden, and works 40 hours on a Project, RedTeam Flex will post $3000 to job cost.

Option 2: Use Standard Cost Rates by Labor Category for Job Cost

This option will post job cost based on the user's Labor Category (which is updated in the Employee's profile).

Example: Employee has the Labor Category "Project Manager" which has a rate of $75/hour, and works 40 hours on a Project, RedTeam Flex will post $3000 to job cost.

For RedTeam Flex databases that are connected to QuickBooks Online

When a Timesheet has been entered, reviewed, and Committed (approved), RedTeam Flex will post in QuickBooks Online:

1) the amount to be disbursed for payroll (Employee's pay rate x # of hours worked) will be posted to the Accrued Payroll account

2) the amount for overhead for the Employee (Employee's labor burden x # of hours worked) will be posted to the Overhead Applied account

You have two options in RedTeam Flex for configuring the way the labor is posted as described above. Both can be found in the Configuration menu > My Company > Timekeeping and Payroll Settings.

Option 1: Use Actual Payroll Rates + Labor Burden

This option will post to Accrued Payroll based on the pay rate for the Employee (entered or modified in the Employee's Profile) and the Overhead Applied based on the labor burden you enter in Configuration.

Example: Employee has a pay rate of $50/hour with a 50% labor burden (so overhead per hour is $50 x 50%, or $25/hour). Employee works 40 hours this week. RedTeam Flex will post $2000 to Accrued Payroll and $1000 to Overhead Applied.

Option 2: Use Standard Cost Rates by Labor Category

This option will post to Accrued Payroll based on the pay rate for the Employee (entered or modified in the Employee's Profile) and the Overhead Applied based on the difference between the Employee's Labor Category rate and their pay rate.

Example: Employee has a pay rate of $50/hour and has been assigned the Labor Category "Project manager" at a standard cost rate of $75/hour (so overhead per hour is $75-$50, or $25/hour). Employee works 40 hours this week. RedTeam Flex will post $2000 to accrued payroll and $1000 ($25 x 40) to Overhead Applied

Steps:

  1. From Configuration, locate "My Company" (under the heading: Controls)

  2. Scroll down to the section "Timekeeping and Payroll Settings"

  3. Select an Option and Save

  4. If you choose option 2, next you will close the window and go to Labor Categories to Configure these with your standard rates
