I've set up a plan with an undetermined date
I've entered tasks and resources

Currently the total plan lasts about a day and a half (in reallity the project will likely last weeks. Lots of little bits spread out over days). I've just got it compressed to make sure the tasks are in the correct order and that the dependencies are logical. I was also hoping to have an idea of the cost of the man hours involved. All resources have a cost per hour value entered.

One of the resources does not have much time in total in the project. But, the resource has time allocated across both days of the plan. The total hours and total cost are calculated based on the beginning time of the first task and the ending time of the last task for this resource. That's not right.

Another resource has tasks going into the second day, but the total hours and total cost is only calculated on actual time spent.

The only difference between the two is that the "problem" resource has a milestone as one of its tasks

Thanks
