Employees Grid

Use the Employees grid to associate one or more employees with a project, and to define a team role for each employee. To associate an employee record with a project record, add it to the Employees grid. Both records reflect the association.

An employee record must exist in the Employees hub before you can associate the employee with a project record. The fields in the grid display information from the employee record.

If you use Deltek to create a Kona space for the project, the employees listed in the grid automatically receive an invitation to join the space.

Field Description

Click the drop-down arrow on a grid header to complete any of the following actions:

  • To print grid data, click Print. On the Print Preview form, click File > Print to send the grid data to your default printer.
  • To export grid data to an Excel spreadsheet, click Export to Excel. When Microsoft Excel opens, use its features to modify, print, or email the grid data, or to save the spreadsheet file locally.
  • To turn on grouping for a grid, click Enable Grouping. When a field displays with the instruction: "Drag a column header here to group by that column," drag and drop column headers into the field, in the sequence that you want them to display.

Not all options are available on all grids.

Name This field displays the employee's name.

Click the name to open the record in the current browser window or right-click the name and then click the Open in new window option to open the record in a separate browser window.

  • When you enter an employee in the Principal, Project Manager, or Supervisor fields on the General tab of a Project hubs record, the employee and role are entered on the Employees grid on the Team tab of the record.
  • If you remove an employee from the Principal, Project Manager, or Supervisor fields on the General tab of a Project hubs record, the employee's name is removed from the Employees grid on the Team tab of the record only if the employee's Team Status is Proposed. If the employee's Team Status is Active, the employee's name remains in the grid, but the Role field is cleared.

When you use the Planning application and post labor to a phase or task, the employee that is associated with that phase or task is added to the team for that overall project, as well as to the phase or task. The employee is added to the team for the associated level of the Work Breakdown Structure, and each level that is higher.

For example, Employee James Martin is associated with Phase 00-000.02 of Project X. He would also be assigned as a member of the whole team assigned to Project X.

Role Click this field and use the drop-down list to select the employee's role on the project. You can assign the same role to multiple employees. You set up employee roles on the Lists tab of Settings > Labels and Lists.

Note the following:

  • Reassigning the roles of Principal, Project Manager, or Supervisor on the Team tab of a Contracts hub record does not automatically update the entries in the Principal, Project Manager, or Supervisor fields on the General tab of the Projects hub record. You must change the entries in the fields on the General tab.
  • If you remove an employee with a role type of Principal, Project Manager, or Supervisor from the Employees grid on the Team tab of a Projects hub record, and that employee is also entered in one of the Principal, Project Manager, or Supervisor fields on the General tab of the Projects hub, the employee is also removed from the Principal, Project Manager, or Supervisor field.
