Rates

[Anum_10]

How can we assign the rates for Resources that are different from Enterprise
rate?

If we keep the Resources local to assign the rates, then how can we see if
they are assigned to a Project in Project Server?

Only the Project Server administrator can assign cost rates for enterprise
resources. Each enterprise resource can have up to five Standard, Overtime,
and Per Use cost rates. Project managers can assign cost rates for local
resources in a project, however, but cannot edit cost rates for enterprise
resources. Using only local resources in your projects defeats the reason
for using Project Server 2007, right? The system displays only a limited
amount of information for local resources assigned to enterprise projects.
Hope this helps.

Dale,

Is it possible to hide resource rates so only the admin can view it and
project managers cannot view the rates for contractors.

No, it is not possible to hide resource rates from your project managers.
This is why we recommend that organizations never use real salaries, since
there is no way to keep this information private. Hope this helps.
