Resource Utilization

The Resource Utilization portlet shows the resources that have been assigned to the project. The portlet displays allocations, assignments, and the variance between them by time period. For data to appear in the portlet, allocate resources to the project and assign them to tasks. The time periods appear in a row above the column headers.

The following four columns repeat with each time period.

Resource

Displays the name of the resource (last name, first name) associated with the specific issue. To open the resource or role allocations page, click the resource name.

Allocation

The number of hours the resource is allocated to the selected project.

Assignment

The number of hours the resource is assigned to the selected project.

Variance

The difference between Allocation minus Assignment. For a negative number, the user is under-allocated. For a positive number, the user is over-allocated.
