user in multiple-roles with different expenditures / charge rate

Wolfgang Tank July 14, 2013

Hi,

Folio looks very promising. But in our business a user takes different roles in a project we would like to bill with different charge rate. Is ist possible to handle that in FOLIO?

Thanks for an answer

Hi Wolfgang,

Unfortunatelly FOLIO does not support multiple rates for the same period and for the same team member in a portfolio.

The only work arrounds I see for this, would be:

  1. To play with the wages in time to match the work performed as a specific role
    Will certainly become very hard to maintain and confusing...
  2. To clone the portfolio, change the desired wages, retrieve the info you need and dispose if needed of the cloned portfolio. Heavy process
  3. Have specific JIRA user for each role

I Agree... not very efficient

May I ask you how you would like to see it supported in FOLIO?
How to defferentiate the work done as Role a vs Role b?

Cheers,

I have this issue as well. For our requirements, we have funding that can only be used for very particular purposes and rates. We have considered creating a separate FOLIO for that funding only, but then would lose the ease of tracking the project at large.

Tasks are created in the funding scope, so perhaps there can be a screen to reconcile time on the task level instead of just user level?
