View Detailed Resource Allocation Information

To assist with project resource planning, you can hover over a cell in a resource plan to view detailed information about a contact's resource allocation for a particular work stage and week.

The resource allocation information dialog displays the following information for a contact:
  • Current availability
  • Time allocated to the current work stage
  • Time allocated to other work stages and projects
  • Absence
  • Time reserved for non-project work.

If you want to focus on assigning resources to a plan without viewing detailed information, you can click View Tooltip on the resource plan toolbar to disable this feature. You can also disable this feature for all resource plans by deselecting the option in your display preferences.
