Setting Up Categories

If you want to roll up resource costs into categories, you need to specify the appropriate category for the resource.

There are four resource categories:

  • Labor
  • Material
  • Other Direct Costs
  • Subcontract

You can select a resource’s category on the General tab of the Resource Details dialog box. Selecting the Progress Based on Activity Progress option instructs Open Plan to calculate the actual and remaining resource requirements based on the activity progress during progress calculations. Select the Consider in Cost Calculations option if you want these resource costs to appear in the cost summaries.
