The non-overtime rates expressed as a series of price per unit values for the resource as of the effective date. The rates are used to compute resource assignment costs for activities. You can define up to five rates for a resource for a timespan starting on the Effective Date. Your organization can define text titles for each rate type as part of enterprise data.

For example, enter 54 as a Standard Rate and 64 as an External Rate. The application will automatically format the rates per unit of time, for example, 54/h.
