Within Teamwork.com, you can create and schedule time allocations for users to manage their workload and get an overview of your resources. 

To view the Schedule, click the More option in the main navigation menu on the left of your site and select Planning.



In the Planning area, select the Schedule tab from the horizontal menu.



Creating allocations

Click the Add Allocation button in the top right to create a new allocation for a user.



You can also add an allocation by double clicking an empty field within the table. This option will auto assign the user and project depending on which empty field is selected. 

Alternatively, click and drag within the fields where you would like to add the allocation.

Each allocation is required to be associated with a project and user on your site. You can customize the allocation by setting a color and title, as well as start & end dates and duration.

By default, each new allocation will be titled New Allocation. You can overwrite this with a custom title. Click Save to add the allocation to your schedule.

If you attempt to create an allocation greater than the remaining hours available for the user on that day, you will see a warning message stating how many available hours the user actually has. You can still save the new allocation but this will over allocate the user.

If you create an allocation for a day where a user is unavailable, you will see a warning that the user is unavailable on the selected day. You can still save the new allocation but this will over allocate the user.

Managing allocations


In order to manage an individual allocation entry in the Projects view, you will need to click the project's name to expand and view the associated users along with their allocations associated with the project. 

  • The top-level row associated with each individual project will show the combined allocations and unavailable time across all members of the project for each day.
Each individual allocation will show the allocation name and total number of hours. If the user has logged time against the associated project (or task in the project), you will also see a percentage progress bar in the allocation. As more time is logged, this percentage will increase.

In the People view, expanding an individual user row will show their capacity details. In addition to their unavailable time being listed, the user's current allocations will be grouped by their associated project.

  • The top-level row associated with each individual user will show the combined allocations and unavailable time across all the user's projects for each day.
Note: If a user does not have any allocations on a particular project for the period being viewed, the project will not be listed under their name.

In both views, all time logged by a user on the associated project will display against all of their allocations for that project and will represent a percentage completion.

Hover an individual allocation to view the full title, total hours, and date distribution. You will also see options to edit or delete the allocation in the top right.

In addition to using the edit pencil to update allocation dates or duration, you can do so via drag and drop.

To adjust the duration of an allocation, drag the left or right side of the allocation to increase or decrease it. Click and drag an entire allocation to reposition it to fall on alternative days.

Drag and drop can also be used to reassign an allocation to another user.

It is possible to split an existing allocation by clicking on the date break lines within the table.

Hover over the relevant allocation or unavailable time and click the trash can icon.

You will then be asked to confirm the deletion of the unavailable time or allocation.
