Resource Planning

You can plan resources in the TPG Scheduler.  

There are three options with different procedures for resource planning and allocation:

Assign resources to tasks directly in the schedule.
You can then transfer the data to the resource plan to check resource availability.

Assemble the project team manually on the Project Team tab.
If your project contains the Project team tab, you can assemble the project team manually and then assign the tasks in the schedule.

Create resource plan manually on the Resource plan tab.
This allows you to see the availability of the resources before you assign tasks to them.


Assigned resources and their tasks can be synchronized in the resource plan. The availability of the resources is displayed there. If a resource is assigned to a task in the Schedule, the resource is automatically added to the team on the Project team tab.


There are two views available for resource planning:

Standard view: monthly view for a single year.

Multi-year view: view spanning several years.

The following section explains how to work with these views.
