## Open questions (TODO — confirm with Rocky)

- [ ] **Public holidays** — what rate? (Often double-time-and-a-half in Aus construction. Currently undefined.)
- [ ] **Night shift definition** — what time triggers "night" rates? (e.g. start after 6pm? End before 6am? Span requirement?)
- [ ] **Travel time** — paid? at what rate? (Some contracts include a travel allowance, others bill door-to-door.)
- [ ] **Plant rates** — separate to labour. Skid steer, scissor lift, gen, etc. — flat $/hr or $/day?
- [ ] **Mark-up on materials** — when materials are passed through, are they cost+%? Or at-cost?

Once filled in, this becomes the source of truth for every dayworks invoice line OpsMan generates.

## Dayworks operating rules

### Docket sign-off — non-negotiable
- **Every dayworks day requires a signed docket from the client/site rep.**
- The docket book is paper (NCR/triplicate). Rocky photographs the signed page and sends to OpsMan.
- OpsMan files photo to `jobs/<slug>/dockets/YYYY-MM-DD-signed.jpg`.
- **No signed docket = no invoice line.** OpsMan refuses to roll the day into the next invoice run until the photo lands.

### OpsMan enforcement workflow
1. End of each dayworks day, OpsMan checks: did `dockets/YYYY-MM-DD-signed.jpg` get sent?
2. If yes → mark day **billable**, add to invoice queue.
3. If no by EOD → ping Rocky: *"Today's docket signed? Send the photo or flag if not yet."*
4. If still no by 9am next morning → escalate: *"Yesterday's docket still missing — chase before site goes hot."*
5. If still no after 48hrs → flag as **at-risk revenue** in the EOD summary until resolved.

### Per-job: who signs?
Each job's `00-brief.md` records the **client signatory** (name + role + phone) so OpsMan knows who Rocky needs to chase if a docket goes missing.

### Invoice traceability
- Each invoice line references its source docket (e.g. `INV-2026-W17-line-3 ← dockets/2026-04-29-signed.jpg`).
- If a docket gets disputed later, the photo + diary entry for that day are linked — fast lookup.
