saving a local standard rate for an enterprise resource

[Monika]

We are using MSP 2003 Server. We have a mix of employees and contractors in
the ERP. The employees have a fully loaded standard rate but we do not
capture the contractor rate in the ERP.

Is there a way for my users to save locally in their project file a standard
rate value for the contractors? I have been trying to use the cost rate
tables but after I save and close the project and reopen, the rates are gone.

any help would be appreciated.

If your contractor resources are local, you can keep separate rates. All
Enterprise Resource Rates will always be reset when you open a project.

Hi Monika, Rod's right and the answer is No, because you won't be able to
associate local resource rate fields with resources stored in the ERP.
Therefore, your best option is to export the data to Excel and perform any
cost calcs in there...
