Enter Planned Hours for Calendar Periods in Project View

To enter planned hours for resources for specific calendar periods (days, weeks, or months) in Project View, select the project or opportunity, 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, complete the following steps:

  1. In the Resource Planning workspace, click to go to the Project View.
  2. In the project search field at the top of the workspace, select the project or opportunity for which you want to enter summary hours.
  3. If the correct calendar period columns are not displayed in the Project View grid, scroll the right grid section to bring them into view.
  4. 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.

  5. 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 Resource Planning allocates those hours to each lower-level WBS row and to the assigned resources.
