Enter Planned Hours for Calendar Periods in Resource View

To enter planned hours for a resource assignment for specific calendar periods (days, weeks, or months) in Resource View, display the resource in the Resource View grid, expand the work breakdown structure (WBS) under that resource to display the assignment 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 Management workspace, click to go to the Resource View.
2. If necessary, use a search to display, in the grid, the resource for whom you want to enter summary hours.
3. If the correct calendar period columns are not displayed in the Resource View grid, click next to Forecast Range and use the Change Forecast Range dialog box to define the range and scale of the calendar period columns.
4. If Show Capacity above the right corner of the grid is not set to Planned Hours, click and select that option.
5. Expand the WBS to display the WBS element for which you which you want to enter hours.

   You can enter hours for any WBS element at any level of the tree structure.

6. 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 and lower-level WBS elements are displayed, Deltek Resource Planning allocates those hours to each lower-level WBS row.
