Cost Centre Recharge Report Overview
This report is designed to be used as a Cost Centre Recharge Report to extract costs and effort information based on the organizational recharge rates rate set and the hours worked by resources.
Analyzing the Output
Using the three columns after the timesheet status, the report consumer see the recharge rate for each resource and the hours they have booked to each task against each project on their timesheet.  Based on this they can see the amount that will be recharged to the appropriate cost centre.
