Greetings,
We use Project Server 2013 to manage resources that often perform multiple roles within projects and also have different rates between projects. The Standard Rate from the user's profile is somewhat helpful but, as we all know, it carries over to every project that the resource is part of.
I have tried opening Project Professional 2013 and using the additional Cost tabs in the user's information to enter different rates in tabs, B, C, D and E (tab A is the default Standard Rate from Project Server).
My experience has been that as soon as I close and check in the project file, this data disappears. Next time I open the file the default rate is available but tabs B-E are blank. This behavior does not occur if I open a stand-alone project file not connected to Project Server.
I realize that Project is not meant to be a financial management tool and has its limitations but I'm looking for suggestions and would appreciate any feedback.
Thanks
Ray
