The People Planner Windows Application

There are clear parallels between the embedded People Planner Components and the People Planner Windows Application itself:

• MyPlan corresponds to the Scheduler view in the People Planner Windows Application.
• The Budgeting Assistant and the Progress Evaluation Assistant do not have direct counterparts in People Planner. They would correspond to a PG (Project Manager Gantt Chart) plus an RG (Resources Gantt Chart) that only shows the currently selected budget line.
• The Resourcing Overview in the WSC and the Resourcing workspace in the web client corresponds to the PG and the RG combined.
• The Resource Management corresponds to the RG.

The following two figures illustrate this relationship for the Resourcing Overview.

The Resourcing Overview

The People Planner Windows Application – PG over RG

The functionality in both is therefore naturally related. The following table describes some notable differences.
