Tips to Find Available Resources
You can add or move activities anytime and your technicians may ask for help anytime in completing an activity. You
can locate an available resource through several different ways.
•
Let the application propose the available resources. Use the List view to move the activity. The application then
evaluates the activity and proposes a number of resources that can take the activity.
•
Identify resources with idle time. Look in the resource tree to find a resource that does not have a full workload.
•
Identify open time slots. Look in the Time view for white spaces in schedules. White spaces indicate free time.
•
Identify nearby resources. In the Map view, select the Nearby Resources filter to see resources that are
working near the location of the activity that needs to be moved.
