Data fields reference

Field	Description
Cost Information
Cost	The cost item to be added to the job template. Select an item from the drop-down list.
Quantity	The number of items to include in the job template.
Folder	Use the folder field to group all related costs together. Type a folder name, as required.
Billable	Indicates if the cost is to be included in billable work. Select the checkbox if the cost is to be billed to the client. More... For example, you may have set up a non-billable 'Admin' cost to capture time spent on administration work that cannot be billed to the client. By setting up the cost as non-billable, you can still include the cost to capture true costs for project management or payroll purposes.
