Item types

An item has one of the item types below:

Item
Hour code - employee
Hour code - material
Equipment
Installation

Before September 2024, you had to activate an hour code or an installation separately on the item file in order to assign it to an item. This has been replaced by the 'item type'. If you select item type 'hour code' or 'installation', this is activated in the background in Robaws. From now on you no longer have to activate it manually.

Cost type 'material' can now also be linked to item type 'installation'. So you no longer have to choose cost type 'equipment' if you want to register serial numbers of installations.
