The Resource Info tab updates the following user details:
- Burden and Bill Rates (if Budget Add-On enabled)
- Allocation Percentages (if Resource Allocation & Resource Management Add-On enabled)
- Resource Type information
- Time and Expense Entry Information (if Time Tracking Add-On enabled)
Without all add-ons the barest version of this page looks like this:

Resource Type Information
Resource Types
Uses the Resource Types list defined in the Administration, this field is all the possible roles this resource performs (often thought of as skill sets).
Use this field for:
- Reporting
- Suggesting a resource
- Mass assigning tasks by resource type
Resource Type Default
"Although this user may do ALL the types of work above, their primary Resource Type is..."
This is for reporting purposes where you may need a one-to-one relationship between user and resource type.
Project Sponsor
Does your organization assign a Project Sponsor for your projects? Do any stakeholders or internal leadership have a special interest in certain projects?
This checkbox allows the user to appear in the Sponsor field on a project's Add/Edit form. The field is usually used for reports.

These notes are visible to all users in the Directory.
