Alright as we wrap things up here in this chapter on assigning resources and just getting started with the resources in our project, want to point out that all the things you learned about in the previous chapter you can still use and take forward with you as you start to use the resource sheet to build the resources of your project. So for example if you have a bunch of resources listed here and you think later on down the road, you think well I forgot to add one here, there's some things I need to add into my list of resources. You can always select a resource entry here, just select the three in the number column for the resources and you can either hit the insert button on your keyboard, you can also right click if you want to and add a new resource from the context menu and now it just gives you a place where you can insert a new resource into your project. So for example what if you have a line producer and they do work as well, it's a human type of a resource, max units a hundred, their standard rate rather then an hourly rate, maybe they charged 12.50 per and if I do W that will enter in a rate for that person of 12.50 per week. Maybe your director who is number one does not have a standard rate of 200 hundred dollars an hour but rather has a cost per use, in other words their assigned to the project and whether that project is done in two months or six months or a year their going to charge 70,000 thousand dollars for their work on the project. So their cost per use is 70,000 thousand and the standard rate just enter a rate of zero and a rate of zero here for the overtime rate. So that's another possibility that you have with the resources that are on your project. Same thing with for an example your material resources, rather then a standard rate you could just say the cost per use is 250 and if I just enter nothing it's going to use the denomination everything else does. In other words all I have to do is type in the number; I don't have to worry about the dollar sign. Here the standard rate of zero would apply cost per use, 250 for the use of that material resource. Easy to do, absolutely, remember the abbreviations you have per W, per M for month or the default is per hour. You don't have to enter anything when your entering in standard rates or cost per use, you don't have to enter the slash and H or slash anything because it's per use of that particular resource, whether your dealing with a human resource or material resource. If you do not like using the resource sheet of course you can do this through the resource information dialog box. So your director, you can go to the project and open up the resource information, double click once again and here's all the information, it's on that costs tab, so I've just entered in the information you can select and make your edits up here if you want. If you decide that you don't need a resource after all you can always go back in, make a click, make a right click and delete resource from your list of resources and if you change your mind about even that remember that your undo is there for you to work with as well. Control Z and you can easily fix a typo or unnecessary deletion or insertion that you didn't mean to, there's multiple levels of undo as you saw in the first chapter here and that's one of the nice new benefits of project 2007.
