Allocate Resources from Estimates

Use the Allocate From Estimates option when you have changed your resource original ETC. Also, to calculate the planned allocation based on the new estimates. This calculation only impacts the portion of the allocation that is after the resource actuals through date. The resulting allocation segments are rounded based on the value set for the Round Allocations to the Nearest % field. The value is a default project management setting.

Follow these steps:

  1. Open the project and click Team.

    The project team staff page appears.

  2. Select the check box next to the name of the resource, role, or non-labor resource, and from the Actions menu, click Allocate from Estimates.
