Configure Availability for an Individual

The default work week for your organization is set in Account Settings. This default work week informs the allocation % target on the schedule so you can schedule your team for 100% of their available time. For example, 40 hours a week would be 100% allocation.

Administrators can add or update availability information for people who don't use the default work week.

To set availability for a specific person:

1. Go to Settings > Account Settings and click People.
2. Click the name of the individual and make adjustments in the Availability section.

Only assignments created or modified after you set part-time availability setting are affected; you may need to modify existing assignments to reflect updated availability Prior assignments will still show full time availability. 

If a person has zero hours available on any given day, that day is considered a non-working day. Assignments that overlap with a non-working day are removed from timesheet suggestions and do not count towards the project budget in reports

Time suggestions (unconfirmed hours) will not be scheduled if a person is unavailable.

Set first and last days of work

Team members are considered unavailable before their first day of work and after their last day of work. 

To set a first and last day for work:

1. Go to the People page and select Edit Profile. 
2. In the Availability section, enter a first and last day for work. 

Set  permanent part-time availability

For people who have availability that differs from the default settings:

2. Click the Add part-time availability button in the person’s profile.
3. In the Start Date and End Date boxes, set the dates: enter the start and end dates to indicate when the working duration will differ from the default work week for your organization.

Set a temporary part-time availability

If a person is temporarily unavailable during a specific period of time, set a part-time availability block in their profile:

2. Click the Add part-time availability button in the person’s profile.
