Editing a job group brings up this editor to define the job group. You'll also see this when creating a new job group.

Field name

Description

Description

Name of the job group.

Parent

For nesting one job group within another. Note a job group with children cannot have a parent. Job groups can be nested only one level deep.

Default hourly value...

When crediting someone with hours for a job, if the job has no hourly value associated with it, VSys will look here for the appropriate value.

Hourly values in the past

Use this to set the hourly value for this job group for past dates. When determining the hourly value to use, VSys will check each hours record's start date to find the appropriate value.

Inactive

If checked, this job group and jobs within it will be shown at the bottom of most editors greyed out with the jobs in italics. This keeps all the information about who worked the job in the past intact. Use this instead of deleting a job group, since deleting it cannot be un-done and results in the permanent loss of information.
