Data fields reference

Field	Description
Task Information
Task	The name of the task that you wish to add to the job. Select the task from the drop-down list.
Label	A  label In WorkflowMax tasks, a label allows you to use the same task multiple times. The label is automatically appended to the task name. For example, in a specific job, designs are required for a brochure, flyer and a handbook. So, a label can be used to identify the Design task for each item: "Design - Brochure", "Design - Flyer" and "Design - Handbook".  to provide a name for a sub-task.
Label Description	A description of the sub-task identified by the label.
Default Time	The expected time required to complete the task (hr:min). You can modify this default time, if required, once a job has been created with the job template. You can enter the time as hr:min (for example: 7:30) or as decimal 7.5 (7 ½ hours in both cases). The decimal value is converted automatically to minutes.
Folder	Use the folder field to group all related tasks together. Type a folder name, as required.
Billable	Indicates if the task is to be included in billable work. Select the checkbox if work on the task is to be billed, leave it clear if it's not billable. Example... For example, you may have set up a non-billable 'Admin' task to capture time spent on administration work that cannot be billed to the client. By setting up the task as non-billable, you can still record work against the task to capture true costs for project management or payroll purposes.
