1. if you want a fixed cost then make sure that calculate costs from units is NOT CHECKED. Then just add the resource and put in the fixed costs. You can also export the budgedt costs to excel and import the fixed costs. Yoy MUST have calculate costs from units NOT CHECKED.
if you want to change all of these you can go to tools global change
where resource name is not equal to (leave blank)
then calculate cost from units =no
then on the right select Apply changes
then on the bottom comitt changes
2. if you have units you can select calculate cost from units
for each type of resource you can set a Price/unit
lets say you set the price per a resource to $100 now if you have 10 units thats woul be $100 * 10= $1,000
3. is not a question
4. Go to Projects make sure you project is open click on the Calculations tab on the right under Resource Assignments
make aure that When updating Actual Units or Costs that
