RFR cost calculation: -
    • RFR: The cost will be calculated based on the Number of required resources. Then final cost will be based on the number of attached resources on request. In case the number of attached resources is higher than number or required resources, we take the number of required resources (less number between both fields).
PS: the cost for RFR will never increase, after the PM saves the request.
PS: if there is no resource attached to request and request is closed, cost will be 0.
    • RFI: The cost will be calculated based on the Number of required CVs. If no CVs required, the cost will be multiplied by 1.
PS: the cost for RFI will never increase, after the PM saves the request.
PS: if there is no resource attached to request and request is closed, cost will be 0.

    • LS: The cost will be calculated based on Consumed time. Consumed time field will be automatically filled based on historical data. Also the Qualifier will be able to edit it (Increase or decrease) before marking the Request as Open.
PS: The LS request might increase before it's opened. The Maximum price for LS request I 16 USD, and minimum price is 2 USD. Once request is Opened, the cost for LS request will never increase.
    • In case the request status is Rejected or auto-cancelled. The request cost will be 0.
