Add vendor-based user identification, reporting, and cost calculation

We work with a mix of internal employees and external contractors from multiple vendors (across different teams). We need a way in Tempo to easily identify users by vendor, track work performed per vendor, and calculate costs based on individual hourly rates.

Business Requirements:

  1. User identification by vendor

    • Ability to associate each user with a vendor (or mark them as internal).

    • Vendor field should be available as a filter and grouping option in Tempo reports.

  2. Work tracking per vendor

    • Generate reports that show, for each vendor:

      • Total hours logged.

      • Breakdown of hours per individual user.

  3. Cost calculation

    • Ability to assign an hourly rate per user (rates may vary within the same vendor).

    • Reports should calculate the total cost per vendor based on logged time and each user’s rate.

Why this matters:

  • Improves visibility of external vendor contributions and associated costs.

  • Simplifies supplier invoicing, cost control, and contract management.

  • Reduces manual consolidation of time and cost data from multiple sources.
