The screen allows you to add the service item to the specific SFS or edit the existing item. Key fields are carried from the Fee Schedule screen.
Employee:
Employee that you want to assign rates to. Either type or choose an employee from the drop-down list. The field size should not exceed 65 characters.
Activity:
Either type or choose an activity from the drop-down list. The field size should not exceed 13 characters. If your Activity IDs are grouped according to rates, then create Service Fee Schedules using Activity Groups to save time.
Employee Group ID:
Employee Group ID, either type or choose from the drop-down list an Employee Group that you want to assign rates to. The field size should not exceed 15 characters. You cannot use both Employee ID and Employee Group in the same row. Assigning rates to an employee group rather than individual employees is a great time saver when you want to assign the same rates to multiple employees.
Activity Group ID:
Activity Group ID, either type or choose from the drop-down list an Activity Group that you want to assign rates to. The field size should not exceed 15 characters. You cannot use both Activity ID and Activity Group at the same time. Assigning rates to an activity group rather than individual activities is a great time saver when you want to assign the same rate to multiple activities.
Bill Rate:
This field shows the bill rate assigned to the combination of employee or employee group and activity or activity group on the same row. It is calculated automatically if either the Cost Rate Multiplier or the Bill Rate Multiplier is filled in. If you do not want the Bill Rate to be based on employee rate information, leave the multiplier fields blank and enter this bill rate manually. Bill rate is also calculated here according to the multipliers used.
Bill Rate Multiplier:
The bill rate multiplier calculates the Service Fee Schedule's bill rate based on your employee's default hourly bill rate. A multiplier is the number that you would like to multiply the employee's default bill rate by to get the bill rate for this Service Fee Schedule. For example, if you want to bill at 1.25 times employee's default hourly bill rate, you would enter 1.25 in this column. If the employee's default bill rate is $100.00 per hour, the Bill Rate field will reflect 1.25 times $100.00, or $125.00.
Thus: Bill Rate x BR Multiplier = SFS Bill Rate
BR Multiplier is available only when an Employee ID is selected in combination with an Activity ID or Activity Group.
If an employee's default bill rate is changed in the Employee screen, the Service Fee Schedule's bill rate will not reflect this change even if you have used the BR Multiplier. The bill rate will remain as it was before the change in Bill Rate. This keeps bill rates consistent for individual projects even if the employee default rates change.
Cost Rate:
Rate assigned to the combination of employee or employee group and activity or activity group on the same row. Typically, this field is left blank. When time is entered in the Time Entry and this field is blank, the default cost rate for the employee will be recorded with the time entry. Since the per-hour cost rate is typically determined by the employee and does not vary based on project or activity, this field is usually left blank.
If you set the SFS rates as $0, BillQuick Online ignores it and instead fetches the default employee rate for the time entry. Some users want to use the SFS to have both their Bill Rate and Cost Rate default to zero dollars, but keep the entry billable. BillQuick Online allows you to specify a $0 rate or null value (blank) in a fee schedule if you specify that option in Global Settings. In that case, BillQuick Online will apply the $0 rate to the time entries; when blank, it will ignore the SFS and search for the next rate as per the rate hierarchy.
Pay Rate Multiplier:
The pay rate multiplier calculates the Service Fee Schedule's bill rate based on your employee's default hourly pay rate. A multiplier is the number that is multiplied to the employee's default pay rate to get the bill rate. For example, if you want to bill at 2.5 times employee's default hourly pay rate, you would enter 2.5 in this column. If the employee's default cost rate is $30.00 per hour, the Bill Rate field will reflect 2.5 times $30.00, or $75.00.
Thus: Pay Rate x PR Multiplier = SFS Bill Rate
PR Multiplier is available only when an Employee ID is selected.
If an employee's default pay rate is changed in the Employee screen, the Service Fee Schedule's bill rate will not reflect this change even if you have used the CR Multiplier. The Service Fee Schedule's bill rate will remain, as it was before the employee's default pay rate was changed. This keeps bill rates consistent for individual projects even if the employee default rates change.
Over Time Multiplier:
The overtime multiplier calculates the Service Fee Schedule's overtime bill rate based on the schedule's Bill Rate. A multiplier is the number that you would like to multiply the schedule's Bill Rate by to get the overtime bill rate when this schedule is used in the Time Entry rate determination. For example, if you want to bill overtime at 6 times the SFS Bill Rate, you would enter 6 in this column. If the Service Fee Schedule Bill Rate is $100 per hour, the bill rate recorded to the time entry will be 6 times $100, or $600, when the time entry is marked as overtime in Time Entry.
Unlike the other multipliers, the OT multiplier can be used in a row where an Employee Group is used.
If an employee's default bill rate is changed in the Employee screen, the Service Fee Schedule's overtime bill rate will not reflect this change when you have used the OT Multiplier. The overtime bill rate is calculated when an overtime time entry is made and the Service Fee Schedule bill rate will be used when the Service Fee Schedule calculates the appropriate overtime bill rate for the time entry.
Minimum Hours:
Minimum hours can be assigned; this value will automatically be brought forward as both the billable hours and actual hours in the time entry screen when a value other than zero exists. In addition to establishing minimum billable times for activities, this field can be used to assign special day-rates. For example, if you bill $800 per day for a certain activity and the bill rate is $100, you will want to assign 8 as the minimum hours for the row.
Taxes
Tax 1/2/3:
You can specify tax rates at the fee schedule level in BillQuick Online. This functionality plays an important role if some of your projects have different item-level taxes than other projects. Up to three taxes can be assigned per activity. When you select an activity, the associated taxes, if any, are also fetched by BillQuick Online. These item taxes are assigned to time entries when they are recorded. The tax rates are summed and then used to calculate the bill amount of the time entry. For example, if activity GEN:TECH has a Tax 1 value of 5% and a Tax 2 value of 10%, when a time entry is made for GEN:TECH, 15% will be added to [Hours x Bill Rate].
Classification:
Allows you to assign titles to the employees for the Service Fee Schedule. Select the title suitable for the employee from this field and this will be reflected in the invoices and reports of projects to which the SFS has been assigned. When no title has been defined here, the employee will continue with the existing title as entered in the Employee screen.
For example, Allen Marcello has been given the title of system administrator in the employee screen, however you can assign the title as General Manger for a selected SFS. This implies, Allen Marcello performs different functions on different projects with different rates as defined in the Service Fee Schedule. These titles will be carried forward to Time entry screens, reports and invoices of the project to which the SFS has been assigned.
Priority:
This is a number assigned automatically to each SFS record as they are created. It determines which rate BillQuick Online fetches from the SFS in case of multiple matches. This priority number is based on the original sort order of the SFS line items but can be changed.
Memo:
Unlimited text to describe the employee ID,group-activity ID or group combination for the row of the schedule. This memo automatically attaches to any time entry that pulls the bill rate from this schedule item. Click Date-Time Stamp 
to add current system date and time to your memo.
