Just eat all hours that way you don't go hungry on the plane ride
Double charge
You charge the client you are actually working on and then any remaining time would go to the travel code
Double charge. You had the choice to sit on the plane and do nothing, charge client a for that time, and do client b's work later. Why should your utilization suffer because you chose to be efficient? Double charge it.
Literally no one gives a shit
You charge the time to the client you're actually doing work for. Doesn't RSM have an out of town travel code for travel time?
End of day it's all BS anyways in public. The budgets are all unreasonable so the realization is really a ghost metric.
Double counting the time is fraudulent and I'm shocked to see so many responses advocating for that behavior. Charge time to the client on which you were actively working and any remaining unproductive time goes to travel.
You double charge. Either way, you would have spent that much on both clients.
You actually get to charge your travel time to a client? In my office it is to go to the travel admin code.
Depends. Are you over budget on one? I would charge both if you're under budget. Otherwise just charge the travel time and eat the hours.
Hmm. All the firms calculate utilization different I think. At EY, you would see benefit by double counting the time.
You would charge the time spent working on client work to that client
Watch the Tom Cruise movie, The Firm. Lol
Neither. You're entertaining yourself on fishbowl. That's not chargeable per RSM policy.
Nobody gives a fuck about the excess travel code. It's not like partners ever look at it and say "Damn look how much time Timmy spent traveling. Let's give him the best bonus". All they care about is billable hours. Hit the code with your travel time and increase those billable hours.
^Really? Fuck, why doesn't anybody tell me these things?
So travel time is an AP code? IE not billable? That's kind of shitty isn't it? How are the people who spend 20 hours a week traveling ever supposed to hit their utilization?
No, it's not billable to clients for traveling during normal business hours. That's why they have these authorized travel codes and what not. They don't want you charging hours to your client unless you're doing actual work.
It's not money it's just credit towards your goals
