Resource pools

How do you best work with a resource pool across International countries?

RE: Resource pools

Hi Paul

Thank you for your question

The key to getting this to work is to have different base calendars for each legal jurisdiction. This will allow you to represent the different public holidays that apply in different countries. Copies of each base calendar can then be allocated to each relevant resource.

Thus if you had three shifts in France and two in germany, then you would need 5 base calendars in total.

Hope this is useful

Regards

Stephen

MS Project tip:

Using the Quick Access Toolbar in Project 2010

The Quick Access Toolbar is included in virtually every Office product, including Project 2010 as well as Outlook 2010, Word 2010, Excel 2010, and PowerPoint 2010.

You will find the Quick Access Toolbar in the top-left side of the window. To begin, click the Customize button (it's the little black arrow at the end of the toolbar).

Simply click the commands you want to include.

Virtually any command can be added to the Quick Access Toolbar. Click the More Commands option and a new window will open from where you can browse the commands including those not on the ribbon.
