Within Teamwork, you can see a breakdown of the tasks included in the Planning Overview area.

This article relates to a legacy version of the Workload feature which will be retired on August 26th, 2022.

You can read about the new version of the Workload here.

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



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



The overview is populated based on a number of conditions related to the tasks. In order to appear in the overview, a task must have estimated time set and meet the conditions below: 

Included tasks:

  • Any tasks which have either their start or end date within the selected time frame.
  • Tasks which have their start date before the selected time frame and an end date during or beyond the selected time frame.
  • Tasks which have their start date during the selected time frame and an end date during or beyond the selected time frame.
  • Active tasks with no start or due date can be included by selecting the 'Include tasks due anytime' checkbox in the filters pane.
Tasks that will be excluded from the overview:

  • Late tasks with a due date before the beginning of the selected time frame.
  • Tasks with a start date after the selected time frame.
  • Tasks with a start date before the selected time frame and no due date are not included, even if they are still active or are marked complete within the selected time frame.

In the example above, the overview is filtered to one specific user, date set to the current week, and is sorted by user.

  • Emer is assigned to 7 tasks across her projects (6 active tasks, one completed):
    • These tasks have a combined estimated time total of 14 hours 45 minutes.
    • 1 hour 55 minutes have been logged across the tasks, so the time remaining is 12 hours 50 minutes.
  • The Totals line at the bottom will show the totals for each column across all users currently being viewed.

Selecting one of the task totals will open a quick view to the right, listing the associated individual tasks.
