You can access the Labor Price Rules setting in the Control Panel to add and manage labor price rules.

Labor price rules allow you to create formulas to apply to labor Items in your SI catalog or projects to change any pricing related to the labor Items.

You can also create "Labor Price Rule Groups" to group and apply multiple labor price rules simultaneously.

Labor price rules and labor price rule groups are global, meaning they will be automatically shared with all users.
