What Information Does the Staffer Display?

Which Columns Are Included in the Staffer View, and What Configuration Options Are Available?

The Staffer is structured as follows:

  • The Start tab contains the Staffer table.

  • The View tab displays the available configuration options.

  • The Details tab provides detailed information about individual objects.

The main view under the Start tab includes the following information in detail:

 

Function

Description

1) Department

This is where the department is selected for which the Staffer view should be opened. When the Staffer is opened, it always shows the current month. Any other time period can also be entered here. Free formats like “Q2 2025,” “CW23 to CW35,” or “June 2025” are supported.

2) Time Period

Field to enter the desired time period.

3) Time Period Buttons

Buttons for the current, previous, and next quarter.

4) Assign Preferred Resource

Must be activated via settings. The preferred resource is automatically assigned with the requested workload.

5) Show in Table Planner / Project Planner

Objects are opened in the Table Planner or Project Planner.

6) PDF Export

View can be exported as PDF.

7) Undo

Undo function.

8) Program

Direct program reference of the displayed projects.

9) Name

Object name to which resources are assigned.

10) Start

Start date of the objects.

11) End

End date of the objects.

12) Request

Requested workload assigned virtually to the selected department.

13) Assigned

Workload that has been assigned.

14) Quantity

Total assigned workload per object.

15) Resources

Resources (selected department itself, sub-departments of the selected department, their employees, as well as employees of the selected department).

16) Requested

Total planned capacity per resource in the selected time period.

17) Available

The following configuration options are available under the View tab:

 

Function

Description

1) Units

Defines the unit for data values (percent, hours, days).

2)

Simulated Projects

Projects in simulation mode are displayed. The department’s workload view is therefore supplemented with planned and not yet released projects.

3) Totals Rows

Assignments are summed up and shown at the next higher level.

4) Overbooking

If this function is activated, more effort than requested can be assigned.

5) Rebooking

If an assignment for an employee is reduced or set to zero, the remaining effort is returned to the department’s request. If the Option is set to OFF, this does not happen.

6) Allow Zero Assignments

When enabled, resources with 0% (0 days, 0 hours) assignments are still displayed. This helps track which resources were assigned and later “deleted” by entering a workload of “0”.

7) Delete Virtual Resources

If the request has been fully fulfilled by real employees, the department is removed from the package. This option can be disabled to keep showing which department the request originally came from.

8) Show Departments Only

Only departments are displayed, not individual employees.

9) Ad-Hoc Assignments

Displays assignments made in ad-hoc mode for a department.
