Usage

Use this window to manually spread and verify it per week. The load hours per week have to be manually entered into the table and the result is immediately shown in the graph.

The window shows the consumption of a resource row between its start and end dates. If the resource forecast starts or ends in the middle of a week, only the part of the week within the start and end dates is shown.

The information displayed is the resource row usage spread across all the weeks available according to the calendar for the resource group. You can scroll through the entire period and view the resource allocation changes. This is useful to identify over allocated resources as you add resource connections to your project.

The bar shown for each week is the usage allocated for the work week on the X-axis. The bar is the usage based on the selected resource row.

The normal capacity limit defined for each week for the resource group is displayed as a line in the graph. This shows you how your estimated resource usage relates to available resources.
