Resource allocation

can I track the use of a single resource over a number of projects

RE: resource allocation

Hi Dee

Thank you for your question. Yes you can. First create a project to store your resource information. Ideally it will have no tasks, just resources.

Then open your project that needs the resource and from the Tools > Resource Sharing > Share Resources

Set it to use resources from the resource pool file you created.

Your resource is then connected to the pool.

I hope this helps - do let us know if you have any further questions.

Kind regards,
Andrew

MS Project tip:

Autofit column width – Project (all versions)

At the top of the columns where each column name is located (Task Name, Duration, etc.), hover over the vertical column line which you want to move.

A short bold vertical line will appear, with horizontal arrows pointing left and right.

Left click and hold this icon and it will permit you to grab the column line, allowing you to move it left or right to your desired location.
