Select 'Daily' to require all resources report their hours on a daily basis for each assigned activity. If you choose this setting, you can also specify a maximum number of hours resources can enter per day for all of their assigned activities (minimum 0.5, maximum 24). For example, if you set this value to 12, for all of the resource's activities, a resource cannot report more than 12 hours per day.
