Setting Rates for Project Staff
Rates are set for project staff from the Team Workbook's Resource Detail view. Rates set here for a user become the hourly rate on that user's time sheet. When users create new time sheet line items in a time sheet and add a project and a project role, the hourly rate field is populated with the resource rate defined in the Team Workbook's Resource Detail view. For more information about time sheet line items, see Adding Line Items to a Time Sheet.
