Info

If you have configured your project to use teams and price lists (see Project Teams / Price Lists), it is not possible to log work if you are not member of a team with a valid price list for the date of your work log entry (the date of the entry, not the date your are performing the action). This also applies for historic JIRA time entries that have been created before you have installed ictime. You won't be able to edit these entries as long as you are not configuring at least one team with a valid price list (or change the project configuration to no using teams & price lists).

Create Price Lists

The team list shows existing price lists for a team and you can create new price lists. Depending on the status, a price list can be edited and deleted.

...

To create a new pricelist, click the respective button "Create price list". 

 

FieldDescriptionRemarks

ValidityChose a date from-to. Rates from this price list will be taken for this team for all times logged within this validity period. Validity periods can completely be in the past or in the future or can start in the past or end in the future.Can be changed later on according to defined rules, see below.
Activity Type RatesHere, you can define different rates by activity type.Optional.
Activity TypeSelect an activity type from the dropdown. Click "add" to add this activity type specific rate.To remove an activity type specific rate, mark it in the right multi-selectbox and click "remove". Selection Definition of prices per activity type is optional and can't be changed modified later on.
RatePrice/hourRate per hour for the selected activity type.Can't be changed later on.

If you set specific rates per activity type, you can either set a type price for every activity type, or only for selected activity types. If there is no specific rate, the default rate will be used.

Info

If you do not want to use rates/prices to price your work, you still need to create a pricelist, otherwise your team members woN#t won't be able to log time. You might enter 1 as rate.

You can create as many price lists for one team as you want. However, at a time, only one list can be used, otherwise ictime would not know which rate to use. This means that validity periods of two price lists can never overlap (see below).

Edit Price Lists

Apart from the name, the validity period is the only thing you can change for an existing price list.

...

Edit Options

You can edit price lists via the

(Edit)

link behind the price list name/validity period in the team list.

You can change

  • Name
  • Validity Period
Info

When editing a price list, It is not possible to change the deafult rate, to change rates for activity types or to add specific rates nfor activity types, otherwise calculations would no longer be transparent. You have to be sure that all times logged have been priced with the rate of the price list applicable. If rates change, this can usually be reflected by setting up a new price list and modifying the validity period of the old price list.

Validity Period

When changing the validity period, the following needs to be considered (logic is that your change of the validity period can never cause an existing time entry no longer having a valid price list.):

...

  • Possible: 01.01.2012-31.12.2012, 01.03.2012-12.05.2012
  • Not possible: 01.04.2012-30.06.2012, 01.03.2012-10.05.2012
