Hi GM,
Your approach seems OK. Only that you have to monitor on a daily basis to reflect who does actual work on the day.

Hi Alex
You are right, unfortunately I have to work in an enterprise environment where a conventional schedule is required and also the one I have described in the post, as both are tied into other costing programs, both types of schedules feed into other programs therefore it is important they both are produced in Microsoft Project, also some resources could be in the conventional schedule and the same resource also in this time capturing schedule. If there is no easy solution the one I specified will work, I just thought with all the experience within this forum some of you may have run into this situation before.
Appreciate the reply, GM

You look like descriping an accounting Journal instead of a plan.
If you only want to capture the $ spend without any task, you can do it in a Excel spreadsheet.
Planning involes communication, talk to the people who do their works, what they plan to do in a year, how long does it take on each task, what is the sequence between the works. What are the key milestons.....
Without the basic info you cannot build a project plan.

Alex
