Production Rate Tables

To access this screen:

Production Rate Tables are used to allocate rates to tasks that are driven by a Resource. You can allocate these rates to All Tasks or to tasks that pass a specified filter.

About production rate tables:

  • Production Rate Tables set the default production rate for driving resources when those resources are assigned to tasks.

  • Your application defines the effective rate according to the task calendar (and potentially the resource calendar, depending on options).

  • A Production Rate Table only applies during resource assignment after you assign it to individual resources (it is not applied just by defining the table).

Activity steps:

  1. Display the Production Rate Tables screen.
  2. In the Production Rate Tables list, do one of the following:
    • To edit an existing table, select it.
    • To create a new table, click New, then enter a name for the table.
    • To rename a table, select it, click Rename, then enter a new name.
    • To delete a table, select it, then click Delete.

    Note: Your application lists table names in alphabetical order.

  3. In the grid, set where the rate applies:
    • In Apply to Tasks, select All Tasks to apply the rate to all tasks in the project.
    • In Apply to Tasks, select a Filter to apply the rate only to tasks that pass the filter conditions.
  4. In Rate [per hour], enter the required production rate for the tasks.
  5. Click OK to update your project.
  6. Save your project.
