# Time Card Reports and Actuals Analysis in Ontraccr

## 🧾 **Time Card Reports and Actuals Analysis in Ontraccr**

* * *

### 📘 **Overview**

**Time Card Reports** in Ontraccr provide a detailed breakdown of all logged labor activity across your projects — including which **cost codes** were selected, how many **hours** were worked, and how much **actual labor cost** has been incurred.

These reports power **job costing actuals**, support **payroll review**, and give project managers deep visibility into team performance and budget health.

### **📊 Where to Find Time Card Reports**

Navigate to:

-   **Reports** → **Time Cards**

You can filter the report by:

-   **Date range**
-   **Project**
-   **Employee**
-   **Cost Code**
-   **Division**

* * *

### **📈 What’s Included in the Report**

Each row in the report includes:

| Column | Description |
| --- | --- |
| **Project** | The job where time was logged |
| **Employee** | Who submitted the time |
| **Cost Code** | What task the time was assigned to |
| **Date** | When the time was worked |
| **Hours Logged** | Total duration worked |
| **Hourly Cost Rate** | Wage or override used |
| **Actual Cost** | Hours × Cost Rate |
| **Type** | Regular, Overtime, Double, etc. |

This breakdown gives you the **true cost of labor** across your job sites.

### **🔁 Ties to Job Costing**

All labor costs shown in Time Card Reports are rolled up into:

-   The **Progress Page** (under Labor → Actuals)
-   **Project-level reports**
-   **Custom dashboards** (via Analytics Engine)

This ensures your actual cost data is always synced with your live project budget tracking.

* * *

### **🔧 Cost Calculation Sources**

Ontraccr uses the following in order of priority:

1.  **Hourly/Daily Override on Cost Code** (if set)
2.  **Worker’s Default Wage** from employee profile
3.  **Overtime Rules** configured for that user

* * *

### **🧠 Use Cases**
