Cost Centre
Generate
There are four reasons for using Cost Centre:
- Group employees for reporting purposes. For example you could set your Cost Centre Names to Factory, Warehouse, Office. Then you can run reports to see only details of each group independently. You can also set up Cost Centres as the departments to which invoicing will be sent.
- Group employees to match Payroll system. That is, if Time-Minder is used in conjunction with Payroll software that has Cost Centres set up.
- Differentiate what area people are working in. To do this, you need to make sure that the Card Number field contains the number of the Cost Centre swipe card.
- Job Timing. So that you know how long an employee has spent on a task or job.
Cost Centre Field Descriptions
Cost Centre Abbr. Cost centre code, can be anything you decide.
Cost Centre Name Can be anything you decide although it should be descriptive.
Payroll Code For use in conjunction with a Payroll system. Must be the same code as in the payroll system.
Group This field can be used to group cost centres together. It is useful for reporting purposes or differentiation of employees. Eg. Grouping cost centres “Factory” and “Warehouse” (which are paid weekly). Another eg. Grouping cost centres “Factory” and “Warehouse”, where employees are under an Enterprise Agreement, compared with cost centres where employees are salaried, eg. “Office”. These group headings are printed in the Payroll Report.
