Views
The Schedule provides two key perspectives
to plan and monitor your work. Each view
includes visual roll-ups that
summarize capacity and allocation
activity:
- Projects view: See allocations
grouped by project to plan delivery
timelines and budgets. Each project
row
shows a daily bar indicating allocations
and unavailable time.
- People view: See allocations
grouped by person to understand workloads
and overall team balance. Each user
row shows
capacity color cues (green for available,
red for over-allocated).
Roll-ups are hidden when grouping
by Role.

team, role, or availability to focus on

Group and
filter
Refine what you see in the Schedule using
grouping options and filters.
- Grouping (
) defines how
rows expand in each view: - Projects view: Groups the
list of members under each project by
their associated role.
- People view: Groups each user
based on their role.
- Filtering (
) defines the
data populated in the timeline. Options
vary per view: - Projects: project,
category, owner, company, user,
placeholder, only projects with
allocations.
- Scale only: adjust availability
based on calendar data.
- People: project, user,
placeholder, role, skill,
team, only projects with
allocations
- Scale only: adjust availability
based on calendar data.
If a project or person is missing
from the Schedule, they may not yet
have any allocations. See Add
resources to include them
manually.
Timeline
interactions
The Schedule timeline is fully interactive.
You can drag, drop, and resize allocations
directly from the timeline.
