Skill Search Results Sub-Tab

This section includes the fields and descriptions for the Skill Search Results sub-tab.

Field Description
Employee No. This field shows the number of the employee on the line who matches the skill requirement and selection criteria specified.
Name This field displays the name of the employee in the field “Employee No.” above.
Transfer to Plan If you mark this field, the employee information on the current line is transferred to the detailed resource plan for the job budget line displayed in the card part when you select the action “Transfer to Plan.” When a search is performed by means of the action “Search,” Maconomy automatically marks the employee in the search results who matches the search criteria the best and, thus, is suggested as the employee best suited for the job. However, other employees can be marked as required. Employees already planned to work on the job cannot be marked and transferred.
Primary Category No. This field displays the number of the employee’s primary category.
Category Name This field displays the name of the employee’s primary category.
Skill Match % This field shows for an employee how many of the skills specified on a job budget line he possesses. The degree is displayed as a fraction, calculated as the number of skills possessed by the employee divided by the total number of skills specified on the job budget line.
Hours Available This field shows the number of hours the employee is available within the date range defined in the selection criteria. Only the number of hours of available planning time is considered.
Required Overtime This field shows how many hours of overtime the current employee should work to be available for the number of hours required within the specified date range. The overtime hours needed are calculated as the difference between the number of hours the employee is available and the number of hours planned for him in the window Detailed Planning.
Potential Overtime This field displays the potential number of overtime hours for the current employee within the specified date range, assuming that the number of hours specified in the field “Min. Hours Available” is added to the current workload of this employee. The value in this field is the sum of the existing number of overtime hours for the employee within the specified date range and the number specified in the field “Required Overtime” above.
Potential Load Percentage This field shows the potential load of the current employee within the specified date range, assuming that the number of hours specified in the field “Min. Hours Available” is added to the current workload of this employee. The higher the number in this field, the greater the workload of the employee. A number that exceeds 100 means that the employee will have to work overtime.

The load percentage corresponds to the part of the employee’s planning time for which hours have been planned. This means that if the employee’s planning time is 30 hours per week, and 15 hours have been planned for the employee in the week in question, this field will contain the value 50 %.

Level Match % This field shows to what degree the current employee matches the skill levels required on the job budget line. This value is calculated as the average of the level match % of each skill requirement specified for the job budget line. For each requirement, the level match % is calculated as follows:
  • If the skill level of an employee is exactly as required, the value is 100%. The value will also be 100% if an employee does not possess a skill level which has been specified as undesired or disallowed on the job budget line.
  • If the employee does not possess a mandatory or preferred skill at all, the value is 0%.
  • Otherwise, the level of the employee in question will be either below or above the mandatory level, and the level match % will be below 100% to indicate that the employee would be either underqualified or overqualified for the task on the job budget line.

    In this case, the level match % is calculated by using the calculation value specified in the window Level Lists for each level on the list assigned to the required skill. The calculation value is used to specify the distance between the levels on the list. For the level farthest away from the required level on the list, the level match % is 0%, and for the other levels, Maconomy calculates the level match % as a percentage of the difference between the required level and the current level.

Assigned This field shows whether the employee is already assigned to this task in Detailed Planning. You cannot change this value.
Assigned in Future This field displays whether the employee is already assigned to this task in Detailed Planning, but for a future starting date. You cannot change this value.
Number of Skill Deviations This field displays the number of skill level requirements specified on the current job budget line which cannot be met by the current employee, that is, the employee has been assigned a lower skill level than required for the skills in question. This field is only relevant if the field “Skill Deviation Acceptance” is marked.
Number of Overqualifications This field displays the number of skill level requirements specified on the current job budget line for which the current employee is overqualified, that is, the employee has been assigned a higher skill level than required for the skills in question. This field is only relevant if the field “Skill Deviation Acceptance” is marked.
