# Syncro Emergency / After-Hours Billing
Rules for applying emergency or after-hours labor premiums in Syncro tickets.
---
## Definitions
| Term | Meaning |
|---|---|
| **Normal hours** | 9:00 AM 5:00 PM, MondayFriday |
| **After-hours** | Before 9 AM or after 5 PM on weekdays, or any time on weekends/holidays |
| **Emergency** | Customer explicitly requested emergency or same-day rates |
| **Same-day** | Work done same day it was requested, during normal hours — only billable as emergency if customer requests it |
---
## When to Apply the Premium
**Claude-created tickets:** Apply emergency premium **only if explicitly requested** by the customer or instructed by Mike/Howard.
**Suggest it** (do not apply automatically) when:
- Work is performed after-hours or on a weekend
- Ticket notes indicate the customer called in urgently outside normal hours
Do not apply for same-day work unless the customer asks for the emergency rate.
---
## Ticket Subject Prefix
| Condition | Prefix |
|---|---|
| Customer explicitly requested emergency rates | `Emergency -` |
| Work performed outside normal hours (not customer-requested) | `Afterhours -` |
| Normal hours, no emergency request | No prefix |
Examples:
- `Emergency - Servers down, HP ProLiant host powered off`
- `Afterhours - Printer not connecting after office hours`
---
## Billing Method — Two Scenarios
### Step 1: Determine if Customer is a Block Customer
Check customer notes in Syncro for "block hours," "prepay hours," or "prepaid." Block customers have invoices with $0.00 totals and line item descriptions containing "Prepay Hours."
Known block customers as of 2026-05-25: Valley Wide Plastering (VWP), Dataforth Corporation, Cascades Retirement Properties. Always verify — blocks can be exhausted or moved to QB tracking.
---
### Scenario A — Block / Prepaid Hours Customer
Use **two line items**, both using the same standard labor product as the non-emergency work:
| Line | Product | Qty | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Standard labor product (see table below) | Actual hours worked | Description of work performed |
| 2 | Same standard labor product | 0.5 × line 1 qty | `Emergency/Same day rate` |
**Example:** 1 hour of emergency remote business on a block account:
- Line 1: `Labor - Remote Business` (1190473) — 1.0 hr — "Emergency remote - Servers down, powered on via iLO"
- Line 2: `Labor - Remote Business` (1190473) — 0.5 hr — "Emergency/Same day rate"
Reference: Invoice 67594 (VWP, 2026-05-12), Ticket #32269.
---
### Scenario B — Non-Block / Direct Billing Customer
Use a **single emergency labor product** for the full hours worked:
| Customer type | Product | Product ID | Rate |
|---|---|---|---|
| Business | Labor - Emergency or After Hours Business | 26184 | $262.50/hr |
| Residential | Labor - Emergency or After Hours Residential | 42584 | $202.50/hr |
**Example:** 4 hours of emergency business work, direct billing:
- Line 1: `Labor - Emergency or After Hours Business` (26184) — 4.0 hr
Reference: Ticket #32188 (VWP, direct billing, 2026-04-22).
---
## Standard Labor Products (Reference)
Standard non-block business rate: **$175/hr**. Emergency premium is 50%, so $175 × 1.5 = $262.50 (product 26184).
| Service type | Product | Product ID | Rate | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Remote Business | Labor - Remote Business | 1190473 | $175.00/hr | Non-block cash billing |
| Onsite Business | Labor - Onsite Business | 26118 | $175.00/hr | Same rate as remote |
| In-Shop Business | Labor - In Shop Business | 573881 | $175.00/hr | |
| Block/Prepaid (any type) | Labor - Remote Business | 1190473 | $0.00 | Price = $0; draws from block in hours |
| Remote Residential | Labor - Remote Residential | 1190471 | $100.00/hr | |
---
## Straddle (Mixed Normal + Emergency Hours)
If work begins during normal hours and continues into after-hours (or vice versa):
- Ask: "Does the after-hours portion warrant splitting the labor?" (brief overlap usually doesn't)
- If splitting: bill normal hours on standard product, after-hours/emergency portion on the appropriate emergency product or as a second prepay line
---
## Products NOT to Use
| Product | ID | Why not |
|---|---|---|
| LLF - Remote Labor (Emergency/Afterhours) | 145022 | Legacy contract product, no longer applicable |
| Fee - On-Site Business Emergenc | 45871 | Not in current use — do not add without explicit instruction |
| Fee - On-Site Residential Emerg | 45870 | Not in current use — do not add without explicit instruction |
---
## Quick Decision Tree
```
Was emergency rate explicitly requested by customer?
YES → Apply premium (see billing method below)
NO → Is work happening after-hours or on a weekend?
YES → Suggest emergency rate to Mike/Howard; do not apply automatically
NO → Bill at standard rates, no prefix
```
```
Is customer a block/prepaid customer?
YES → Two line items: actual hrs (standard product) + 0.5x hrs (same product, "Emergency/Same day rate")
NO → One line item: emergency product (26184 business / 42584 residential) for full hours
```
