Rates can vary according to the "activity type." By default, this option is disabled and rates are defined regardless of the activity type. The option is available in the general setup document of the Resources database. The field is labeled "Multi rate management."
If the option is enabled, the system selects the rate according to the activity type. If the option is disabled, the system uses the default rates.
Note: The activity types are defined in the "General" setup document of the [Resources] module, as well as the "Keywords lists" setup document of each of the [Projects] modules.
