Set up labor

Introduction

The labor module in ParagonERP allows users to track the type of labor needed for production, as well as the time, and the cost associated to the specific labor.
 
Labor items are important when you are creating your product bill of materials.
 

 

Step-by-step instructions:

  • Step 1: Go to the labor module

From the home screen, click the more tab, and navigate to the labor module.

 

From the labor list view screen click the create new labor button at the top left hand corner.

 

  • Step 2: Add attributes and information

You'll be redirected to an empty template to enter labor information. You'll notice it looks very similar to other reference screens in ParagonERP.

 

In this step, you can begin to enter the appropriate information pertaining to the labor required. 

  • 2a. Complete the business card

The panel on the left is the business card. The first field, code, is mandatory and must be unique.

The other fields in this first panel were set up in labor settings. These fields are only mandatory if they were set as mandatory in labor settings.

Here, you can create different attributes pertaining to your labor.
 
The attributes that you see on the screen are set up as always show in the labor screen settings. Click on the add button to see all available labor attributes. 
 
 

If the information you'd like to enter is not in this list either, you will need to add it to Paragon through reference screen setup .

 
  • 2c - Add attachments
 
You can also add attachments to the labor.
 
 

  • Step 3: Save

 
When you are finished entering all the relevant information, click the save button.
 

 

  • Step 4: Activate Labor

Activate your labor by clicking the action button in the bottom right corner of the screen.

 

  • Step 5: Add labor to your product module (BOM)

Once your labor is active and ready to use, you can add it to your Product BoM.
