Chin,



Such is life my friend, sometimes there isn’t always a suitable solution.

Hi Chin,



MS Project only has two rates, Standard and Overtime. Unfortunately this means that there is only one overtime rate available. It is common practice in the UK to pay two overtime rates (time and a half and double time) so I understand your frustration.



The only ways I have found to skirt round this issue are by using a dummy resources (a copy of the named resources with OVT in the description) to capture the Sun / PH overtime, or capturing Sun / PH the hours, calculating what the additional overtime cost will be and then forcing the extra costs into the schedule.



Sadly not ideal by any means.



Regards,



Darren
