What is a Work Category?
Work categories classify the types of work that staff perform and are a key element of project control operations. Work Categories are also referred to Labor Codes on Vantagepoint, or Service Items on Quickbooks. They allow you to manage work plans at a Labor Code level. This is a very granular, detailed level that is for advanced planning as it takes significantly more time. Work categories are used in entering timesheets in Mosaic. We do not recommend starting at this level if you are not planning at this level currently.
Where do I find Work Categories in Mosaic?
