Usage

Use this window to define selection parameters for the Resource Analysis window. The settings are stored per user so same settings can be used regardless of what resource group or resource structure to be analyzed.

Planning Horizon Offset
Use these parameters to set the planning horizon for each tab in the Resource Analysis window. It is possible to define values for Day, Week, Month, Quarter and Year tabs.

Filter Options
The filter options could be used to narrow down the data to show and analyze in the Resource Analysis window. It is possible to filter on Company, Site, Customer and Program.

It is also possible to filter the load data on its Demand Status.

Group Options
There are some options for grouping and highlighting data in the graph.
To be able to highlight load from the resource planning for one specific project the Primary Project could be used. This could be combined with the Forecast Version to instead group and show the load from a resource forecast for the specified project.
The Category values are used for grouping on the project specific Category 2 field.
It is also possible to group the load data on their Demand Status.

Filter and Grouping on Projects
This table is used to group and filter on multiple projects and highlight them in the Resource Analysis window. The Project Group Text is used to describe the selected projects and will be shown in the Resource Analysis.
