Track a casual helper and their job cost

A casual helper's day, costed onto the job

The problem

A helper works two days a week. Not staff, but those days cost money, and if they never land on the job, the job looks more profitable than it was.

What Zeus does

Save a helper's default rate once. Adding a day to a job is Add day, pick the helper, Save, and it lands in that job's costs.
