Feature Request: Hourly Line Items That Auto-Track Labor Time
Hey Jobber Team and fellow users,
I’d love to see a feature added that allows us to mark a Job or Line Item as “Hourly,” where Jobber automatically tracks labor time during a visit. (yes, labor time is already tracked, but it does not populate invoices automatically with the labor time total)
Here’s the idea:
When a team member clocks in and out for a visit, Jobber would log the total man hours and automatically populate that into the invoice line item when it’s generated.
Example:
If a visit takes 3.5 total man hours across the crew, and the rate is $60/hr, the invoice line would automatically show:
Labor (Hourly) — 3.5 hrs @ $60/hr = $210
This would be a huge time-saver and ensure invoices accurately reflect labor hours without needing to manually edit or calculate them later.
Why it matters:
Eliminates human error in time-based billing
Speeds up invoicing for hourly work
Keeps job costing more consistent and transparent
**Would also love to see labor time displayed in decimal!**
Would love to hear if others are interested in this too — and if Jobber could consider adding it as a future update!
