How to calculate working hours ?

Do you supervise a team of technicians?
Then surely you should already calculate the working hours of the team.

At the end of each period, it’s often the same song.
You must record, total, or even invoice the working hours of each of your collaborators or employee. However, this essential task can be repetitive, and sometimes surprisingly complex for an organization with many employees.

This article therefore explains how to calculate the working hours per month or for any other period selected on multi-planning.

This can help you in many cases:

You want to check that one of your employees or collaborators has worked the number of hours planned for the month.
You want to check that one of your employee or collaborator has worked the number of hours planned for a given client.
You want to check that the total hours of intervention at a customer correspond to the hours budgeted and contractually validated.
You want to calculate the total hours to bill for a given customer.
You want to establish payslips corresponding to the activity of your resources / employees with the help of payroll software.
etc.
