Filtering Resources

The Resource Planning view shows the availability of your resources and lets you see at a glance who is fully booked, who has available hours, and who is overbooked. By default, you'll see the members of all the teams that are visible to you, but you can customize the view by using filters. For example, you can display only the developers in your company (Roles), only those users who know Javascript (Skills), or display only your team (Teams). This lets you easily find the resources for whom you're planning work.

Filter the resources shown in the Resource Planning view

• Select Planning in the Tempo sidebar to open the Resource Planning view. 

• Click Filter by field to display a list of options: TEAMS, USERS, ROLES, GENERIC RESOURCES, SKILLS. 

  Open

  

   

• Select one or more of the filter options in the list. Clear a checkbox to remove that option from the filter criteria. For example, if you select the TEAMS filter, you can select one or more teams to display.

  • Select the GENERIC RESOURCES filter to see all generic resources in your Tempo instance. If you want to see the generic resources assigned to a team, use the TEAMS filter which displays all team members for a specific team, including the generic resources.

  • Select SKILLS to filter users by their skills. If the filter does not show the list of skills, click the Settings icon and check the Show Skills option.

    When you filter by SKILLS in the Resource Planning view, this data is available in the User Capacity data export, but is not carried over to the Planned Time report.

• The filter and its options are applied to the resources displayed in the Resource Planning view.
