What is the difference between explanation codes and task codes?
Explanation codes are abbreviations or short forms of commonly-used phrases that describe such things as work performed, costs, payees, etc. They are used to easily recall the phrase when entering data. They are also used to store Activity Codes for task-based billing. Task codes are used to classify time and fee entries so you can produce reports sorted by task code or restricted to a particular task code. Task codes also contain the codes required for task-based billing.
