2) Time Period |
Field to enter the desired time period. |

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. |
