As an administrator of your workspace, you can activate the hourly rate feature and thereby the evaluation of earnings and costs based on recorded time entries within the workspace.

Then you can define a currency that is valid for the entire workspace.

This currency is applied to all earnings and costs calculated based on the recorded times of the workspace users.

Likewise, you can define a flat hourly rate here to be applied to all times recorded as billable within the workspace.

This value will be used as a general hourly rate for all billable times in the workspace, unless otherwise defined individually at team member, project or project member level. 

In the following, we will show you how to first enable the feature, and then set the flat hourly rate and currency for your workspace:
