Editing resources with the Resource Information inspector
A staff resource can be assigned an email Address. If the resource is associated with an Address Book card, you can use the pop-up menu to pick which address to use. Or, you can always just type an address.
The Units value means how much of the resource is available. For materials, this measures the amount required instead.
The Cost per Use is an amount of money for each time the resource is assigned to a task.
Total Uses means the number of times this resource is assigned to a task.
Total Cost is the combined cost of all uses and all hours for this resource.
If the resource is available for chat, this green indicator appears. Double-click it to start a message in iChat.
Click the Action button to associate this resource with an Address Book card, open the card in Address Book, or send an email or an instant message.
Efficiency is how much effort the resource can make compared to the amount of time it takes.
Cost per Hour is an amount of money for each hour of effort the resource is assigned.
Total Hours is the sum of the effort of all tasks the resource is assigned to.
