Specify Utilization Thresholds

To specify the target range for utilization percentage, go to the Resource Settings tab on the Resource Planning Settings form.

If your enterprise sets up Deltek for multiple companies, these settings apply to all companies.

To specify the target range for utilization percentage:

1. In the Navigation pane, go to the Settings section and select Resource Planning.
2. Click the Resource Settings tab.
3. On the Utilization Thresholds slider, drag one indicator along the scale to the lowest percentage of an employee's utilization target that is considered properly utilized.

   For example, drag the indicator to 95% if employees must be at 95 percent of their target utilization or higher to be considered properly utilized. Employees with a utilization percentage below 95 percent of their target utilization percentage will be considered underutilized.

4. Drag the other indicator along the scale to the highest percentage of an employee's utilization target that is considered properly utilized.

   For example, drag the indicator to 105% if employees must be at 105 percent of their target utilization or lower to be considered properly utilized. Employees with a utilization percentage above 105 percent of their target utilization percentage will be considered overutilized.

5. Click Save.
