Ok I managed to confuse myself with a paradox. We have one phase labeled Design. When we add design and engineering labor to a proposal we will use a labor line item for called Design and Engineering. We gave it a cost/price per hour and put it into the Design phase. Now I am looking at the Phase labor totals in setup and am wondering if the design phase labor numbers are correct.

In the Design phase, would the designer be the base labor? If so who is the Design Labor. Since I am running the dept. am I management? Ahhh so confused!!!

Can anyone shed some light on what the best use of a Design labor item and phase costing.

Thanks,
