Add Calculations to a Resource

Use the Calculations tab of the Resource view to add calculations to a resource or child resource.

To add a calculation to a resource:

  1. Display the Resource view for the resource file you want to update.

  2. In the Resources grid of the Resource view, select a resource or child resource.

    You must select a resource that has a result assignment.

    Note: Resources that already have result assignments are denoted by .
  3. Click the Calculations tab.

  4. In the Calculation pane of the Calculations tab, select the result for which you want to set up a calculation.

  5. In the Source Results pane, select the results that you want to use in the calculation.

    For example, if you selected G&A on the Calculation grid, you can calculate the G&A (General and Administrative) result as a function of the DIRECT and OVERHEAD results.

    G&A = (DIRECT + OVERHEAD) x G&A rate

  6. Click on the Quick Access toolbar to save the changes.
