As projects progressesprogress, the project manager might want to get a real-time view of his resources' work loads based on actual approved time. This report provides visibility of free resources & helps the PM adjust allocations to ensure optimal resource utilization.
This report is a dynamic report that displays the Free hours for resources (resource row) and real-time estimated hours based on actual-approved hours and remaining work at the task and project rows. For past dates, the free hours are based on the actual-approved hours, whereas for present & future dates, the remaining work is computed real-time and spread proportional to the resource's availability.
Lets take an example:
A resource Arnold is assigned to a task 'Project KickOff'
...
11th (past) | 12th (present) | 13th (future) |
|---|---|---|
| 4 (8-4 approved hours) | 2.7 (8-5.3) | 5.3 (8-2.7)2.7 (8-5.3) |
| Info |
|---|
If a task is completed before schedule (i.e. %Complete = 100%) then the remaining work (if any) will not be spread over the future duration of the task. |
