What each kind of work bills at. Choosing the service on a time entry applies the matching rate, so surveillance and desk research can sit on one invoice at different rates. Changing a rate only affects work recorded from now on — anything already logged keeps the rate it was charged at, so nothing you have invoiced re-prices itself.

Washington taxes a service where it was performed, so a job in one city can be taxed differently from one in another on the same invoice. Add the places you work and the rate for each; the default is used when nobody picks one. You maintain these rates — they are not looked up, so check them when your state publishes changes. Changing a rate only affects work recorded from then on.

Drafted records requests cite this. A request that names the statute carries a response deadline; one that does not can be ignored. Pick your state to fill it in, then edit if you need to.

A starting point, not legal advice. Statutes get renumbered and deadlines amended, so confirm yours once before sending.
