Job Time Recording

Marlin GTX enables you to add Technicians, Job Types and Labour Categories to your system.

This enables you to add technicians to each job on a Work Order or Invoice.

Their time can then be assigned automatically or manually.

Technician times are quickly and easily editable from a new Jobs tab in the Planner.

Several reports are available providing information on technician efficiency and utilisation, and the accuracy of your job time estimates.

Note — For instruction on adding job times to work orders and invoices please see Job Time Recording.
