At this time within the SPH file the end date is not operational. Meaning that unless you add a new effective date entry for the same *Role ID> Resource> Project Contract ID> Pricing* the rate does not end ever. The end date within the SPH table is not functional. What we would expect is for the end date to trigger a return to a "standard rate" that is input into the SPH table each year. This trigger prevents our rates from rolling over multiple years. If a client goes from a non-standard rate to a standard rate, with the inoperable end date, it necessitates that each resource has a new entry in the SPH file for the life of the project. If there is a prevailing reason that the end date is not operational I would greatly appreciate an explanation. If it is possible to reconsider the effectiveness of the end date we would greatly appreciate that functionality to be updated.

At this time, we have reached out to three Peer Firms using HSO/D365 and note that our peers would like to see this functionality enabled as well. This is critical to our processes.
We've talked with several other professional services firm and each identified this as a major pain point.
