We can now add resources to the resource workbook using the edit/update option from the Resources menu
This brings up the Add/Edit dialog
Because this is a new resources file we have no resources available, by clicking on the 'Add new Resource' button we can start adding some. The resource abbreviation is what will appear on the ProjeX sheet next to the task, the resource itself can be specified as available 24 hours a day / 7 days a week (for example a computer that can run all the time), office hours / 7 days a week or office hours 5 days a week. The cost of the resource can be defined as an hourly, daily, weekly or monthly rate or as a total cost.
Resources can be added or deleted at any time using the above dialog.
for this particular example we will define 5 resources.
Having specified our resources and their cost (if you are not going to do costing calculations then this is not critical) we need to allocate them to tasks.
