Resources with no budget, but a cost to complete

I am trying to assign a cost to complete to a resource, which has zero budget. P3e seems to default to setting the budget = cost to complete. Anyone know how to turn this off ?

    Something to try - in the resource assignment detail of the activity, insert a ’Cost Units Linked’ field and untick the box.

    Unfortunately not. On a similar note, if you reduce the remaining duration of an activity that hasnt started, P3e automatically reduces the Original Duration. This isnt always the desired effect.

    At the project level, select the ’Calculations’ tab and untick the ’Link Budget and At Completion for not started activities’.

    Doing this allowed me to have a remaining cost with a zero budget and also allowed a remaining duration to be different from original duration for non started activities.
