Assigning constant resource quantity through whole duration of the activity

Assigning typical crews with a single selection we do with multi-resources.  At a single selection all members of the crew are assigned, if you need to make some adjustments for specific ativities just change the quantity or workload.

Assigning the same crew to many activities ( many repetitions with same/similar quantities, but different durations) one resource at a time is annoying.  Agree there must be an easier way in Microsoft Project.

Microsoft Project only considers effort instead of resource quantities and effort. Resource quantity and effort units are not the same and must be defined using different units of measure. Resource Quantity might be 1 ea. For the same assignment effort units might be 24 man-hours if labor resource.
