Labor agreements are yours alone

Your labor agreements are your negotiated cost basis — the rates you actually pay. They were never meant to be shared, and now they can't be.

A sample "UBC Carpenters — Northern California" agreement had been showing up in every company's Labor Rates since the early days. Worse, its rate rows could be edited by any company, and an edit landed on everyone. One customer keeping their own rates current was, without knowing it, re-pricing other companies' estimates.

Every company that was using that agreement now has its own copy, with the rates exactly as they were the moment this shipped — nothing about your numbers changed today. The shared original is gone. A new company starts with an empty Labor Rates list and adds or imports its own.

Two smaller honesty fixes rode along. Editing or deleting an agreement you could see but didn't own used to report success and record an audit event — while changing nothing. It now tells you plainly that the record isn't yours. And the agreement's rate rows can only be written by the company that owns the agreement, which is what should have been true from the start.
