Let’s capture some rates for the USMNT, shall we? The more experience a player has, the higher their rate. If they have international experience then they can have an even higher rate. Let’s plug these into our Resource Sheet in MS Project. I also created a labor category based on their group (Mid3 is higher paid than a Mid2).
At this point, you would be able to assign these resources to a task (with their associated amount of work) and see what the total budget would be. Notice anything different about the USMNT bus type compared to the rest of the team resources?
We’re not using the Material column b/c in this case…well, we can’t (b/c we’re using cost and work type resources instead of material). If you try to enter something into that column you’re not able to type anything. Why not? Well, b/c the resource types that we’re using are Work and Cost. If we were using a Material type then we could enter the measurement of how that material type is consumed. If I had to think of something relevant we could probably use Team Uniform as a material type resource and then enter a measurement of an arbitrary number of shirts needed for each game.
