Work units

A work unit is a named unit of work that a permanent resource performs. For example, Programmers may produce 'lines of code' and Engineers may install 'meters of cable'. The same work unit can be used by more than one permanent resource.

You can specify the work unit for a permanent resource either when editing the default allocation settings for the resource, or when assigning a resource to a task and editing the resource allocation properties.

You can edit the properties of a work unit by editing options on the Work Unit Properties dialog. To access help for the Work Unit Properties dialog, press F1 while viewing the tab.
