Projector intelligently disperses revenue between a resource's projects. So if Jim works 1/3 on project A and 2/3 on project B, then each will be assigned a proportional amount of his whole day RDC. 


Role RDC Override

There is a special case where we ignore RDC values you have entered. This occurs when:

  • Whole-Day RDC is ON and
  • Apply RDC override on a role

In this case, we fall back and use the RDC rate from the resource's department/title. Why do we choose to do that? It comes down to understanding a resource's total cost for the day including things like hours across multiple projects and time off. When you apply RDC overrides at the project level we can't really know which RDC override is the "correct one" to apply across an entire day. So in this case we use the resource's typical as defined by their resource profile. 


Lumpy RDC

When running report projections you may find that project profitability becomes increasingly inaccurate the further into the future you look. This happens when resources are only partially scheduled. For example, Jim is only scheduled on one project currently. He will be assigned to more projects once the future is more clear, but in the meantime, with whole day RDC on, Jim looks very expensive because all his RDC is attached to a single project. There are three ways to solve this problem.
