Direct Hours Ceilings Subtask

Use this subtask of the Manage Project Revenue Calculation Value History screen to view or modify audit table values of the ceilings on hours that are used in the calculation of revenue, for each labor category for the project specified on the main screen.

These ceilings are used in the calculation of any Loaded Labor Hours formulas. You cannot enter separate hours ceilings for revenue and billings.

This subtask is populated with information generated by the Compute Revenue process if you have run Compute Revenue for this project.

For new records, enter ceiling hours here at a labor category level only. These ceilings are separate from any ceilings that are required at an employee/labor category level or a vendor/labor category level, and entry of ceilings at both levels could cause a conflict.

Note: Changes entered on this subtask will not have any effect on billings.
