# Job completion metrics

> Understand a finished job's completion metrics — total hours, hours saved, bonus payout, and plan vs. actual savings.

When a job is finished, Menaia works out a set of **Job Completion Metrics** for it. They're a quick, plain-English scorecard of how the job went: how long it took, whether the crew beat the estimate, what the team earned, and how the planned savings compared to what actually happened.

<Note>
  The job review experience is currently being reworked, and the **Job Completion Metrics** card doesn't have a home in the app right now. Clicking a finished job from the **Jobs** list opens the client's project page, which doesn't show this card yet. This page explains what the metrics mean so you can read them once the card returns.
</Note>

Metrics are only calculated once a job is closed. While a job is still open or in progress, there's nothing to review yet.

## What the card shows

### The headline

At the top of the card you'll see a short status line and the date the job was completed. The status line tells you, in words, whether the crew finished **ahead of schedule**, **behind schedule**, or **on schedule** — for example, "Completed 3 hours ahead of schedule."

### The four metrics

Below the headline are four boxes:

* **Total Hours** — the actual time spent on the project.
* **Hours Saved** — how that actual time compared to the estimated time. A positive number means the crew came in ahead of schedule; a negative number means it ran over.
* **Bonus Payout** — the team payout pool earned on the job.
* **Plan Savings vs. Actual Savings** — two percentages side by side. **Plan Savings** is what the plan expected to save, and **Actual Savings** is what the job actually saved. Seeing them together tells you whether the job lived up to the plan.

<Note>
  If a number isn't available for a job, that box shows **N/A** instead of a value. That's normal for jobs that closed without all the underlying details filled in.
</Note>

### The up and down arrows

Some values show a small arrow next to them. A green up arrow is a good result (for example, hours saved or a payout above zero). A red down arrow points out where a job came up short. For the savings boxes, the arrow on **Actual Savings** compares it against **Plan Savings**, so you can see at a glance whether the job beat or missed its target.

<Tip>
  The arrows are just a fast visual read — the numbers themselves are what matter. Use them to spot which jobs to look at more closely.
