The Total Labor Hours and Total Equipment Hours columns in the Resources tab of the Table auto-calculate the total labor hours per activity and total equipment hours per activity respectively. This gives you an overview of your resource expenditure for a given activity.
How It Works
To leverage this feature for Total Labor Hours, do the following:
Input the type & quantity of labor in the "Labor" column
Input a value for the number of work hours in the "Work Hrs" column
Click the schedule button, and the system will calculate the Total Labor Hours by taking the product of total count, work hours, and duration.
After scheduling, you can see total labor and equipment hours per activity and summer up to their respective parent WBS (group) levels.
To leverage this feature for Total Equipment Hours, simply follow the approach above, but for equipment.
