We happen to track labor burden separately from our labor cost. When using the project manager's worksheet to push the job from the estimate to the project we currently have to manually enter the labor burden into the column. The only two allocated items that are designed to push are "Allocated (Overhead)" and "Allocated (Profit)", while we use a third item "Allocated (Burden)". We need the ability to capture what is in the "Allocated (Burden)" column in the estimate into a cost type item "Burden" in the Project. Of course I wouldn't want to limit this to just burden, the ability to customize any estimate allocation to a project cost type would be extremely handy. If this can happen, we wouldn't dread doing a job load as much as we currently do.
