# Trades

## What are Gewerke?

Gewerke are groups of time-tracking roles in Die Agenturverwaltung.

#### Example

In your company there are the following time-tracking roles:

```
Senior consulting
Junior consulting
Creative Direction Art
Senior Art Direction
Junio Art Direction
Graphic design
...
```

These roles represent different levels — i.e. hourly rates — of essentially the same type of service.

Gewerke are used to group these levels:

```
CONSULTING
  Senior consulting
  Junior consulting
CREATION
  Creative Direction Art
  Senior Art Direction
  Junio Art Direction
  Graphic design
...
```

## What do I need Gewerke for?

Creating Gewerke is optional, but can be useful when the list of roles is long.

A role can belong to only one Gewerk.

The grouping of roles into Gewerke appears in the following reports:

* Custom reports of the display type "role list"
* In the customer on the tab *agency service* in the box *agency service by role*  as well as in the Excel export of this list
* In the customer account on the tab *agency service* in the box *agency service by role*  as well as in the Excel export of this list
* In the job on the tab *agency service* in the box *agency service by role*  as well as in the Excel export of this list

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://wiki.dieagenturverwaltung.de/die-agenturverwaltung-en/einstellungen-1/zeiterfassung/trades.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
