Project Forecast - Scheduling / Resource requirement

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 29

Hello,

Doing forecasting there are options for "Resource requirements" and "Scheduling" (See images below).

I can't find any documentation referencing these areas. Can any of you help me what those areas do and how to use them? I have a minor suspicion that it might be for field service?

    Hello Gaurangkumar,

    I suspect you are right and by the lack of other people replying, it doesn't seem like the areas are used all that often.

    Hi Joachimpwc

    I am using PMA module since 2018, but I never used this field before.

    As pee my knowledge, this is linked to production control module (production resource requirement and job scheduling).

    Please let us know if this helps.

    Thanks,

    Hello Saurabh,

    This is on a project forecasting line. I'm not talking about regular resource scheduling.

    Having a resource to the WBS line does not impact the images I posted before. There's actually a resource linked to the line the pictures are from.

    Hi,

    This is typical resourcing step for project. Now this can be done at early stage when we are creating WBS or project , we can assign who will work and for how many hours (Project Header).

    That can be associated with WBS and if you are creating forecast based on WBS then same will be copied. If not then you can add manually here
