It is important to check that everyone who may use the ResourcePlanner application has access to it. To do this, you must decide who you install the application for by default:

  • Accessible only by authorized Managers: you choose which manager is allowed to access the application. To do this, 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 this, 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.


Application features

The ResourcePlanner application allows you to plan the activity (Absence, Internal & Production) of your resources.

Access to this App is provided through the following methods:

  • From Apps > ResourcePlanner to plan your own timesheets

  • From the "ResourcePlanner" button in the "Deliveries" tab of a project record to plan the timesheets of the project's resources

  • From the "ResourcePlanner" button in the "Timesheets" tab of a resource record to plan that resource's timesheets


Using the application

Plan your own timesheets

Apps > ResourcePlanner

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

The planned times (internal and production) will then be reflected on the employee's timesheets.

IMPORTANT!

If absences are scheduled, they will not appear in the planned times. Only absence requests are automatically reflected on the timesheets.
