Column

ItemDescription

Cost Center & GL Accounts

 

Column

What it shows 

CostCenter

The cost center the hours or expenses are charged to. When running the report without allocation mode, this is the worker's primary cost center. In allocation mode, this reflects each individual cost center the work was split across.

GLAccount

General ledger account number for regular hours, from the cost center configuration

GLAccountOT

GL account number for overtime hours

GLAccountDT

GL account number for double-time hours

Department

Department associated with the worker or cost center

 
 

Rates & Markup

These columns are only meaningful for timesheet rows. Expense rows show 0.

 

Column

What it shows 

BillRate

The hourly bill rate in effect for the timesheet period

PayRate

The hourly pay rate in effect for the timesheet period

OvertimeFactor

The multiplier used to calculate overtime rates (e.g., 1.5 for time-and-a-half)

OTPayRate

Overtime pay rate, calculated as PayRate × OvertimeFactor

OTBillableRate

Overtime bill rate, calculated as BillRate × OvertimeFactor

Markup

Ratio of bill rate to pay rate (BillRate ÷ PayRate). Shows 0 if either rate is zero.

 

Hours (Timesheets Only)

Hours are pulled from time clock punches when available; otherwise they come from manually entered timesheet values. All hours reflect the cost center allocation percentage — if a timesheet is split across multiple cost centers, each row shows only the portion allocated to that cost center.

Formula: Actual hours × (allocation percentage ÷ 100)

Example: 40 regular hours split 60%/40% across two cost centers = one row showing 24 hours, one row showing 16 hours.

 

Column

What it shows 

RegHours

Regular hours worked, adjusted for cost center allocation

OTHours

Overtime hours worked, adjusted for cost center allocation

DTHours

Double-time hours worked, adjusted for cost center allocation

 

Dollar Totals

All totals are rounded to 2 decimal places and reflect the cost center allocation percentage (same logic as hours above).

For expense rows: only Total is populated (sum of all line item costs). RegTotal, OTTotal, and DTTotal are always 0.

 

Column

What it shows 

RegTotal

Billed amount for regular hours

OTTotal

Billed amount for overtime hours

DTTotal

Billed amount for double-time hours

Total

Grand total billed. For timesheets: RegTotal + OTTotal + DTTotal. For expenses: sum of all expense line item costs.

 
 

ACA Fees

ACA (Affordable Care Act) fees are surcharges calculated based on vendor-buyer configuration. These are separate line items in the report and always show 0 hours.

 

Column 

Formula

What it shows 

RegACA

(Per-hour ACA charge × RegHours) + (ACA % of pre-tax billed × RegTotal), adjusted for allocation %

ACA surcharge applied to regular hours

OTACA

(Per-hour ACA charge × OT multiplier × OTHours) + (ACA % of pre-tax billed × OTTotal), adjusted for allocation %

ACA surcharge applied to overtime hours

 

How Cost Center Allocation Works

A timesheet or expense can be split across up to 4 cost centers. When allocation is configured, the report produces one row per cost center split, with hours and dollars proportional to each allocation's percentage
