Headcount types let you record separate counts for groups such as Employees and Contractors. Use them when a single total would hide information your team needs for space planning. For example, an office with 80 employees and 20 contractors can have two headcount entries instead of one undifferentiated count of 100.

Add a headcount type

When the Headcount module is enabled, open Company > Company Settings > Headcount Types.
  1. Click Create Headcount Type.
  2. Enter the name your team should use for that group, then save.
  3. Select the type when entering headcount data.
Creating a type adds a classification; it does not add people to your recorded headcount. To rename a type, select its row in the settings list. For the assumptions used to estimate seating capacity and calculate utilization, see General company settings.
