Enter Planned Hours in Calendar Period Columns in Project Planning

To enter planned hours for resources for specific calendar periods (days, weeks, or months) on the Labor tab on the Projects form, select the project, expand the work breakdown structure (WBS) to display the WBS level or resources for which you want to enter hours, and enter the hours in the appropriate calendar period fields.

To enter planned hours for calendar periods:

  1. In the Navigation pane, go to the Hubs section and click Projects.
  2. Select the project for which you want to enter hours.
  3. Switch the Project/Plan toggle to Plan.
  4. On the Actions menu, click Check Out.
  5. Click the Labor tab.
  6. If Show is set to Amounts, select Hours instead.
  7. Expand the WBS to display the WBS elements or resources for which you which you want to enter hours.

    You can enter hours for any WBS element at any level of the tree structure, or you can enter hours for individual resources.

  8. Click the assignment row to display the entry fields, and enter the hours in the calendar period fields.

    If you enter hours for a parent WBS element rather than for a resource, Deltek allocates those hours to each lower-level WBS row and to the assigned resources.
