Resolution

The ETC for expense resources will only show up correctly on the time scale if the Units/Format for the field is changed to Cost. This setting is found on the Formatting Options window that comes up when double clicking on the field on the View Definition window in Open Workbench. 

Additionally, the costs will only show on the time scale if the resource has a valid rate for that time period.
