Introduction

People Planner is a centralized resource and capacity management solution which serves as an add-on to Maconomy's Project Management module.

It provides Project Managers the ability to effectively staff their projects, Resource Managers with the ability to manage the capacity of the team of resources under their control and responsibility, and Employees or individual Resources with the ability to view details about what projects and tasks they assigned to, for how many hours they have been planned to work, and when this work is scheduled.

Although People Planner and Maconomy are technically two applications, the DFME solution integrates access for all relevant roles to all parts of the People Planner functionality from directly within either the Maconomy Workspace Client (WSC) or Maconomy iAccess User Interfaces. Although People Planner and Maconomy are technically two applications, the DFME solution integrates access for all relevant roles to all parts of the People Planner functionality from directly within either the Maconomy Workspace Client (WSC) or Maconomy iAccess User Interfaces.

This access and functionality can be divided into three main areas:

• MyPlan for Employees (Resources)
• People Planner Web Components for Managers, Resource Managers, and Project Managers
• People Planner Buttons and Actions as they relate to Resource Management and Project Management Workflows
