It is important to check that all people who may need to use the ResourcePlanner application have access to it. To do this, you need to decide to whom you install the application by default:

  • Accessible only by authorized Managers: you choose which manager is allowed to access the application. To do so, go to the Administration interface in the Managers / Roles module, open the relevant account/role records, then check the ResourcePlanner app in the Apps section.

  • Accessible by all managers: all managers will have the application installed by default.

  • Accessible only by authorized managers & all resources: all resources with intranet access will have access, and you must choose which managers can access it. To do so, go to the Administration interface in the Managers / Roles module, open the relevant account/role records, then check the ResourcePlanner app in the Apps section.

  • Accessible by all managers & resources: all resources with active intranet and all active managers will be able to access the application.

  • From the "ResourcePlanner" button in the "Times" tab of a resource record to schedule the times of that resource


Using the application

Scheduling your own times

Apps > ResourcePlanner

From this view, month by month, you can schedule your production, internal, absences, and prospecting times.

Scheduled times (internal and production) will then be transferred to the employee's timesheets.

IMPORTANT!

If absences are scheduled, they will not be included in the scheduled times. Only absence requests are automatically transferred to the timesheets.
