Job pricing

Hi BlueSkies​,

This is a great example of the type of operational insight that really helps dial in profitability. I completely understand the value of quickly comparing actual time spent against a target hourly rate and spotting patterns.

In Jobber, Job Costing would likely be very helpful for what you are describing. I will link the help article here.

With Job Costing, you can:
• Track labor hours directly on the job page
• See time logged by team members
• Compare labor cost against revenue on that specific job

While it does not currently have a built-in “target hourly rate checker” report exactly like you described, you could approach this in a couple of ways:

• Use custom fields on the job to indicate your target hourly rate or expected hours, then compare that against actual time logged.
• Use line items to reflect your expected labor allocation and then compare against actual job costing data.

From there, you can review patterns monthly and identify which jobs are underperforming, which are exceeding expectations, and where pricing adjustments may be needed.
