If you change any attributes regarding the hourly rate (active_hourly_rate, hourly_rate and/or hourly_rates_per_service), it will by default only apply the changed rate to time entries created from now on. If you want it to apply to all existing time entries, set the additional attribute update_hourly_rate_on_time_entries to true:

Content-Type: application/json
{
   "project": {
      "hourly_rate": 12000,
      "update_hourly_rate_on_time_entries": true
   }
}
Content-Type: application/xml
<project>
   <hourly-rate>12000</hourly-rate>
   <update-hourly-rate-on-time-entries>12000</update-hourly-rate-on-time-entries>
</project>
