Hi,
The reason you can report time on a different Resource Group than your default one is because you might be working in a different role.
As example, you have one Activity with 10 h Project Management and 100 h Engineering
You have 2 engineers working on it, but the first acts as Project manager, the other as Engineer
Now the first can book his time as Project Manager by changing the default Resource Group.
Result is:
- You can see the amount of actual time per resource group, which can be input for the ETC for the resource
- Depending on the setup you have done, you might get 2 different costs per hour on the project
Hope this helps a bit

Thank you for the response. Do you have any advice on how we can reflect only the related resource groups for the employee? Currently, the specific employee is allocated to two resource groups. However, when the employee reports time, all available resource groups are shown under 'resources' instead of just the ones allocated to them.

Hi Rasfe,
That would be a modification if you want to limit the LOV
You could also use an event that raises an error, if a ‘not valid’ resource group is used, in that case you can define in the event what a ‘not valid’ Resource group is. Like not connected, or not planned on that activity.
