Code type: When you click this field, a form containing six check boxes is displayed. When these check boxes are selected, they have the following effects:
Set main operation: This line is the main operation on a claim unless the main operation has already been set by a preceding line
Set time as labour: Time allowed on this RTS code contributes to the Main labour hours on the claim
Set time as other hours: Time allowed on this RTS code is for part of the Supplementary or other labour hours on the claim
Exclude hours from labour times: This excludes the time allowed for this line from any labour time calculation; only the line value is used
Set as paint line: This RTS code is always treated as a paint line
Set as net item: This line should always be treated as a net item
Approval code: You can use this column to add a default approval code on to the claim (the system only adds a default code once, after that any other codes are ignored)
Set-up code: This field relates to set-up costs used in TIS. If a field in this list is marked as the set-up code, TIS uses this if the Add set-up check box on the TIS form is selected. If no code in this list is selected, TIS does not display the Add set-up check box, and any set-up costs must be added to the WIP manually before invoicing.
