Resource Analysis in Project Management and Planning.

Resource analysis is a crucial component of resource planning and project management. It involves evaluating and fine-tuning resource allocation, to maximize efficiency and ensure successful project execution.

Watch our short demo about Resource analysis in prymeTime (starts at 4:32).

5.1 - Scheduled Resource Forecast Analysis

Insights into resource allocation, availability, and forecasted revenue through matrix-based analysis of work assignments on projects.

The Schedule Resource Forecast Analysis is a matrix based on work assignments on projects. You can choose to view estimated hours or total amount.

This tool is valuable as it allows you to gain insights into forecasted revenue, resource allocation and availability, which can help with project planning and decision-making. It also provides a clear and organized way to visualize resource forecasts and potential constraints, enabling users to better manage their project resources.

You can filter it by various criteria, such as resource groups, line manager, skills, global dimensions, project and project status. 

  1. Choose the 🔎 icon, enter Schedule Resource Forecast Analysis, and then choose the related link.
  2. Select a relevant page.
  3. Select the filters that align with your specific requirements or preferences.

5.2 - Resource Expected Achievements

Insights into resource expected achievements and templates.

Resource Expected Achievements refers to the allocation and planning of work for a resource, related to project/resource managements.

It involves setting up various parameters for a resource, such as the number of hours they are expected to work, the percentage of those hours dedicated to customer-related work, the amount of time off (absence), and internal hours (work related to internal company matters).

The purpose of defining these expected achievements is to have a structured plan for how a resource’s time will be allocated and to ensure that the resource is working in alignment with the goals and objectives of the organization. By specifying these parameters and percentages, you can calculate and monitor how many hours the resource should be spending on customer-related tasks, internal activities, and their absence.

This approach helps in resource planning, workload management, and tracking progress toward specific objectives or contractual obligations. It also allows for more efficient and effective resource allocation, ensuring that resources are used optimally to meet project or organizational goals.

Expected Achievements Template

To calculate the expected achievements for resources, first it is needed to set up a template.

  1. Choose the 🔎 icon, enter Resource Expected Achievements, and then choose the related link.
  2. Create a template from Actions -> Expected Achievements Template.
  3. Specify the Start Date and End Date of when the template is valid to calculate resource achievements.
  4. Define resource management parameters in % such as Average Price, Absence %, Overtime%, Customer%, Internal %, Chargeable % ..etc.
  5. The above parameters will be later used to calculate Resource Expected Achievements.

Resource Expected Achievements

To view the expected achievements fo each resource, you need to create them first.

  1. From the Resource Expected Achievements go to Actions -> Create Resource Achievements.
  2. Select the Template Name,and whether you will create the achievements for a Resource/Resource Group/Resource Sub Group.
  3. Select the Period Type, Start Date and End Date corresponding to the period during which the expected achievements will start and end.
  4. Select OK and the expected achievement lines will be created.
  5. The hours for each of the parameters are calculated as a product of the total capacity for the selected period, and the % of each parameter from the template.
  6. Depending on the calculated parameters, and the Average Price, Expected Revenue is calculated for the selected period.
  7. You can filter on Resource, Resource Group, Resource Sub Group and Date, to retrieve the desired records.

5.3 - Resource Amount Analysis

Insights into resource efficiency, productivity and allocation.

Resource Amount Analysis refers to the process of examining and evaluating how cost is allocated and utilized by various resources within an organization.

Time Entries in Time Tracking Calendar

Managing time tracking gaps can be challenging, especially when uncertainties arise from entries not created through time tracking. Non-time tracking entries are now prominently displayed at the top of the calendar, offering improved visibility and ease of management. Dragging time entries into a timeslot automatically sets the duration based on the entry’s quantity, seamlessly creating connected time tracking entries for enhanced tracking and efficiency.

Timesheet reminder for managers

Managers sometimes need to know who in their team has not submitted their timesheets so that they can help to get them submitted. An email with details for those who have not submitted their timesheets on time can help with that. The summary email provides a list of team members under a specific manager who have unsubmitted timesheets by the due date.

Start/Stop in BC mobile

Managing time on the move is now simpler with our latest mobile update. Users can start and stop timers directly from their Progressus Role Centers with just a tap. Clear indicators show when timers are active, and users can easily stop multiple timers if needed. This enhancement ensures effortless time tracking wherever you are.

Time Entry Created Indicators

Improving visibility of time tracking entries entails introducing indicators at the corners of appointment boxes. A green indicator signifies that a time entry was created from the tracking entry, yellow denotes a new or modified tracking entry requiring a corresponding time entry, and gray indicates a new tracking entry.

Working hours representation in the calendar

Improving calendar accuracy involves highlighting working hours based on individual norms, rather than a fixed schedule. Days with exceptions to the norm adjust accordingly: no hours when set to zero, and regular hours otherwise.

Highlighted running time tracking in the calendar

When viewing the time tracking calendar, running entries are now clearly distinguished with a red shadow, reducing confusion during manipulation. This visual cue ensures users are aware of active entries and helps prevent accidental adjustments while tracking.

Create Time Tracking Entries from Outlook calendar appointments

The feature allows you to convert Outlook calendar appointments into Time Tracking Entries. The function searches for appointments that meet the specified filters on the request page, including current resource and the date filters. Upon running the action again, it will synchronize previously imported appointments that meet the specified filters. The synchronization will update the Date, Start and End Time, while preserving the original description.

Default Task for Time Entries

In some lines of business, the majority of time entries are typically associated with a single task per project. By defining this task on the project, the users can skip selecting the task for most time entries, thus saving time. In addition to their general functionality, the new release offers Default Time Entries Task functionality. Once a Default Task is configured for a project, it automatically populates the task field whenever the project is selected in the timesheet or Time Tracking Entries, enhancing efficiency and eliminating the need for manual task selection.

Default Work Type on Project Card and Project Templates

When a Default Work Type is needed on tasks, it must be defined on each task. By pre-defining the Default Work Type on project level, the users can skip selecting it on every new task, thus saving time. On defining default work type for the project, the user will be asked to copy the same Default Work Type to all tasks in the project. Also, every newly created task from the project will have the same Deafult Work Type. Projects that are being created from the template, will have Default Work Type copied from the template.

Multiple selection for Create/ Update Time Entry

It is possible to include and exclude all lines in the Time Tracking Entries for Create/ Update Time Entries action. Include All and Exclude All will mark or clear out field Create/ Update Entry for all lines in the view from once.

Users are no longer obligated to rely solely on the start and stop buttons for time tracking. You can initiate time tracking by filling out the Start Time field on the today’s date, which will automatically trigger the tracking process. Similarly, when entering the Ending Time, the Start/Stop button will be automatically set to indicate that tracking has stopped.

List of errors on running Create/Update Time Entries

Create/Update Time Tracking functionality enhances error handling and provides users with more transparency. Starting from this release, when running the Create/Update Time Tracking process, any encountered errors will be displayed to the user as a list. This will assist users in quickly identifying and resolving issues related to time tracking entries that can’t be transferred to the timesheet.
