Use the Category Tool

How to use the category tool in Report Pro to assign history labor line items accurately for best report accuracy

Things To Note

  • When un-assigning history line items using the unassign category tab, it will unassign ALL of those line items. There may be a very large amount or line items that were incorrectly in that category from a long time ago

  • If the known categories in the management system are not accurate for the given line items it is a great opportunity to create accurate categories to avoid inaccurate reports

  • Ctrl+click allows you to select multiple entries at once for faster assignment
