So if the manager had scheduled more than 5% over the projected hours, then the Cost indicator is colored red and displays the number of related issues.
- OT—This is a percentage of scheduled hours that are overtime (OT) hours. This threshold is configured based on the company's policy for acceptable scheduling of OT.
