Freelancers in JobBag can be set up with a JobBag login, complete timesheets, and be assigned tasks.

JobBag can also calculate superannuation and deduct voluntary PAYG where required.

In some instances, Freelancers may be considered Employees.

If none of the above functions are needed, you may prefer to set them up as a normal Supplier.
