Filter on Resources with Specific Skills

Use these steps to find resources with the specific skill you need.

To filter on resources with specific skills:

1. Ensure that the Assign Resources dialog is open.
2. Click Filter by Skill.

   This opens the Filter by Skill dialog, which shows a hierarchy of skills that you can select, and in the next layer, the levels of expertise that you can select.

3. Do one of the following:

   • Select one or more skills and levels by selecting their check boxes.

   • If you have a long list of skills, use the Name filter to locate the skills that you want to select:

   • Right-click in the Name field to choose an operator from the pop-up.

     The default value is Contains.

   • Begin typing the name of a skill that you want to select in the Name field (for example, you want to find Spanish so that you can select it).
   • Select the skill when the Skills list scrolls to it.

     You can continue searching for and selecting additional skills and levels of expertise as appropriate.

4. Click OK.

   The Assign Resource dialog now shows only the resources who have the specified skills.

   Note: You must choose the specific level of expertise for the skills. If you specify that the resource must be able to master German at the Novice level, you do not automatically get the resources who master it at a higher level. If you do not care about the level, you can select the check box directly on the skill itself.
