Assigning People to Projects

Many person resources, requirements, and assignments have schedules. The schedules are comprised of work patterns that include working hours and exceptions, such as vacation days. Each schedule is based on the calendar for the organization or an individually assigned calendar.

Changes to these calendars impact the schedules of the person resources, requirements, and assignments differently. Oracle Project Resource Management provides the following administrative processes to help manage these changes and to maintain consistent schedule information throughout the application:

These processes update the schedules and timelines tables with changes to the calendars. For more information on setting up calendars and schedules, see Implementing Oracle Project Foundation Oracle Projects Implementation Guide. For more information on the processes, see Processes in Oracle Projects.

You can view and maintain resource schedules in a list or timeline format and calculate overcommitted and available person resources for a project assignment.
