Video - InEight Progress - Tracking vendor Hours

TRANSCRIPT

In InEight Control, you can assign vendors to individual cost items. to indicate that a certain scope of work will be completed by a third-party vendor.

That vendor can then be used in Daily Planning.

In Control, navigate to the CBS tab.

Navigate to the Assigned vendor column and select a vendor from the drop-down list.

This vendor assignment will allow you to track hours and progress in InEight Control. Click on the Assign button once you are done.

In InEight Progress, when you add or edit a daily plan, there is an Associated vendor field at the bottom of the Add and Edit daily plan dialogue boxes.

Select a vendor from the drop-down list.

Available vendors are populated based on vendor associations for your project in Control.

To add a vendor to the Time Sheet tab of a daily plan, click Add tasks and resources, and then click Vendors in the slide-out panel.

Select Vendor from the left side of the panel and then click Done.

With a vendor resource, you can add vendor labor hours to task in the same way as other resources by clicking in the empty tile that corresponds to that vendor and task.

In the Vendor labor hours dialogue box, enter the hours worked for the applicable resource codes.

The total hours worked is shown in the vendor and task tiles.

Once the daily plan is approved, the hours will appear in Control in the Actual vendor man-hours column, and the headcount will be available for reporting from Progress.

Well, that covers how to associate vendors to a cost item and view the subcontracted hours for a particular cost item. Thanks for watching!
