Problems with different schedules

Hi, everybody.
I’m having a problem with both SureTrack and Primavera, which may be
basic, but that I cannot solve yet, even after following instructions
from manuals.
In a golf course construction project, most of my resourses work 8 hr
a day, but some of them (workforce) work 9 hrs a day.
I created a different schedule for these resources, showing 9 hrs a
day and 6 days a week, but even if the program asks me if I want to
re-calculate the costs, it will always show 8 hrs a day for all
resources.
Did I miss something?

Any help or tip would be very much appreciated.

Regards,

Marcio Eduardo.

    Dear friend,

    why dont you try to create two different calendars.one for 8 hrs a day and the other for 9 hrs a day.

    I hope this will help.

    Thanks a lot ... but read again:

    "I created a different schedule for these resources, showing 9 hrs a

    re-calculate the costs, it will always show 8 hrs a day for all
    resources."

    In Suretrak, I think you must change the activity type to "Independent", in P3 I don´t remember now, but there is something similar with other name.
    Anyway, I think the cost will be the sum of eight hour of one resource with the nine hours of the other (if both work on the same activity).

    Cheers.
