Some of that time might be billable and some might be unbillable -- if you have to perform rework or fix an error, for example, that time is unbillable. Employees also have unbillable time for company meetings and other activities. To handle unbilled labor, set up codes to use when you enter employee time sheets. Enter both billable and unbillable hours for each employee. Generate reports to monitor how much unbillable labor you have and how the time is being spent to help improve your productivity.
