Project Management - Advanced Scheduling

This feature allows you to allocate resources on specific days of the week for a set number of hours over a defined timespan.

Here's how you can use this feature: 

To begin, log in to our platform and navigate to the "Projects" tab. Open the project you need to plan and then click on the project management Tab. 

To start creating a plan click on the create project Button, you can now start adding your tasks and subtasks and assign them to your resources. 



Before we start adding the task, let's take into consideration an example to understand the feature better.

EXAMPLE: You have two designers assigned to the "Detailed Design" task for a 3-month (90 days) period starting today:

- Designer 1 is available for 2 hours every day of the week.
 - Designer 2 is available for 3 hours on Mondays and Tuesdays.

So let's go ahead and click on the add task button and start filling in the details of the task. 



As per the example I've added the Detailed Design Task for three months and then clicked on the resources tab.



After clicking on the "Resources" tab, you can add your first designer and allocate their hours.

Following the example, since the first designer is available for 2 hours each day, you can use simple scheduling by typing "2 hours" under the hours tab. The system will automatically calculate the total hours based on the planned days.

After scheduling the first designer, add the second designer by clicking on the "Add Resource" button. This time, select the "Advanced Scheduling" option.




You'll notice that the start and end dates for the resource are automatically populated based on the task. However, you can adjust these dates based on resource availability. For this example, we'll keep the dates as they are.

Given our resource's availability, you can enter 3 hours for both Monday and Tuesday. Finally, click "Save."

After planning both resources, the schedule will appear as shown below. 



You can now continue planning the rest of your project in the same manner.
