What is a Rate Group?
A Rate Group is a set of Rates based on Roles or Work Categories that can be shared across different Projects. For Role Rate Groups, Cost and Bill Rates can be set for each Standard Role. For Work Category Rate Groups, Cost and Bill Rates can be set for each Standard Work Category. This provides flexibility in estimating Project Budgets.
