Connecting a project sheet to Resource Management gives you an easy way to see how resource changes affect your entire plan. You can also make changes to your plan from the panel.

It’s a two-step process to use the panel. First, authorize your account (one time only), then connect a project sheet to Resource Management.

Once the sheet is connected to Resource Management Panel, you can use the panel to see:

People or placeholders assigned to tasks in your Resource Management project
Overall allocation % for assigned users
Overall availability for team members assigned to your project
Dates for the overall project and individual assignments.

… and you can make assignment changes from within the panel.
