Use Standard Costs for Reliefs of Labor, Misc 1 and Misc 2 Elements (Default)

Select this check box to use standard costs from Project Item Cost (if available) or from Item Cost, instead of actual costs for MO reliefs when calculating the inventory value of labor, Misc 1 and Misc 2 cost elements. This setting displays as the default on the Manage Inventory Projects screen, and can be modified there to override this setting. When this check box is selected for a particular project, all MO's relieved to this project use standard rates (from project item cost or item cost) for labor, Misc 1 and Misc 2 cost elements. This also applies to partial reliefs, regardless of what costing option is selected.
