To have Vantagepoint allocate summary planned hours to individual resource assignments for a project in Project View, select the project, and enter the summary hours in the ETC Hours field at the appropriate level of the plan work breakdown structure (WBS).

To enter and allocate summary planned hours:

  1. In the Navigation pane, select Resource Management > Project View.
  2. In the project search field at the top of the form, select the project for which you want to enter summary hours.
  3. Expand the WBS to display the WBS element for which you which you want to enter summary hours.
  4. Click the row to display the entry fields.
  5. Enter the hours in the ETC Hours field, and tab or click out of the field.

    Vantagepoint allocates the hours to calendar periods for that assignment row, for each lower-level WBS row, and for the resource rows. Only calendar periods that include at least one work day that is later than the current date receive allocations.
