The fields on the Add Labor Fee screen are:

| Description | A brief description for the labor fee. |
| Charge Rate % | A percentage if the labor fee is calculated as a percentage of parts and/or labor. |
| Maximum Charge | The maximum amount to be charged to the work order. This field applies only to percentage calculated charges. |
| Apply Charge Defaults | Select this checkbox to indicate if this fee should always be posted to a work order. |
| Default Tax 1 Code | The Tax 1 code that should be used as a default for the current fee. If the current fee is never taxable, enter the Tax 1 exemption code in this field. If a specific tax code does not apply to this fee, leave this field blank so that the appropriate Tax 1 code for the Work Order defaults from the Customer Profile. |
| Default Tax 2 Code | The Tax 2 code that should be used as a default for the current fee. If the current fee is never taxable, enter the Tax 2 exemption code in this field. If a specific tax code does not apply to this fee, leave this field blank so that the appropriate Tax 2 code for the Work Order defaults from the Customer Profile. |
| Tax 3 Applies | Select the checkbox to indicate that this fee is subject to any tax code defined under Tax 3. |
| Tax 4 Applies | Select the checkbox to indicate that this fee is subject to any tax code defined under Tax 4. |
| Part Number: LABOR |
The system uses a Part Number to post the labor fee defined in this table. The Part Number indicates the G/L account that the sale of these fees would be posted to. The user must define the administration fee as a part in the system. This field already has the word "LABOR" spelled out as the prefix for the part. In this field, you only need to fill out the remaining characters of the part number. The part number can be a maximum of 15 characters or less with 'LABOR' as the first five. |
