List human resources and equipment needed for the project, establish the working program and costs
Based on the project activities, identify the necessary personnel and equipment.
Fill in the cost rate used for the working hours according to the resource calendar as
Standard rate and
the cost rate used for the work beyond the regular working hours as
Overtime rate.
By default, resources use
Company calendar.
In special cases, for resources having specific working programs, select one of the existing calendars in the
Calendar column.
If the predefined calendars are not appropriate, make a new one as indicated in the previous step of the
Guide.
Usually, there are small differences between working programs of the resources that have the same calendar (e.g. days off).
Using the
Working Time tab in details window (

), you may personalize the working program for each resource without making a lot of new calendars.
Modifications that must affect all resources with the same calendar (e.g. public holidays), have to be made in that specific calendar
(
Settings menu,
Calendar).
If you have more than one resource of the same type (e.g. 5 equipments of the same type, for example 5 excavators) you can type "excavator" in the
Resource Name column
and set
Maximum units to 5 to indicate that.
