Both the Estimate and Working areas have Detail columns that are hidden by default.
They can be unhidden by clicking the ‘Details’ button above the area. (Clicking the button again will hide them.)
Details Areas
Notes - this is where you can type notes for that particular Line Number in the budget. Because the Detail columns will not be visible when you print or make a PDF of the budget, this is where you can input information that you want to remain private.
Fringe % - This is the payroll fringe percent. Contact your specific payroll company to find out the exact percentage you should use for your particular project. Payroll fringes usually encompass things like FICA, Medicare, FUI, SUI, and Workers’ Compensation Insurance.
Fringe Total - this is generated by a formula, so you cannot manually input anything here.
PH&W % - This is the pension, health, and welfare that you must pay on any talent and/or crew member that are members of a union or guild. (This is only relevant if your project is being produced under a union/guild agreement.) Your union/guild agreement should list the amount you will be required to pay. It is usually a percentage of the gross pay for a member. Your payroll company may also be able to help you to determine this.
*Some IATSE locals require you to pay both a percentage of the member’s salary, as well as a certain amount based on the numbers of hours or days that they work. This is what the PH&W Flat columns are for. They are turned off by default, but can be turned on via the Options menu, on the ‘PH&W’ tab. If you would like more information on how to use these columns, you may refer to this tutorial video.
PH&W Total - this is generated by a formula, so you cannot manually input anything here.
OT Base - This is the number of hours that are covered by the person’s Day Rate. For instance, if you are paying your Gaffer $600 for up to 10 hours of work, you would put in 10 for their OT Base.
*Hourly Rate - By default, this column will be “locked”, as the hourly rate is normally generated by a formula. However, if you would like to input the hourly rate manually, you can do so by making a change in the Options menu, under the ‘OT Calculation’ tab. Refer to this article for more information.
Total OT - this is generated by a formula, so you cannot manually input anything here.
Note: In the non-labor sections of the budget, the only column listed above that will be visible will be the Notes column.
If you have set your Production Fee, Insurance, and/or Handling Fee calculation to “I will enter the percentage per Line Number”, you will see those columns in the ‘Detail’ section, as well. Refer to this article for more information.
