Cost Rate Source

Determines the default value for the source for cost rate information.  The current options include:

 

This value will influence which option will be selected by default when a Resource Assigner accesses the people Assignment screens.  This setting will also be referenced when users create their own assignments (via the Time >> Plan screens). Since the users may not have control over the source of their cost rate information, this setting will define how their rates will be populated once they begin to charge time to self planned assignments.

This field will not appear if the current user does not have the Cost Rate Manager role.  If your system is configured to use Cost Dilution, the value of this field may be ignored (i.e., if the user is a salaried user).

 

Changing this setting will trigger re-rating, which may modify existing time entries associated with non-LOCKED, non-EXTRACTED time for this project.
