Does resource management round up to the nearest day?

If a task's duration is set as 1 hour, for example, but it is given an allocation %, does Resource Management treat that as allocation for a full day?

    Hi @malden!

    The % allocation in Resource Management is directly associated with both the task duration and the resource's availability.

    For example:

    • If Iโ€™m a resource with 2 hours available per day, and you assign me to a 1-hour task at 100%, Iโ€™ll be allocated at 50% capacity for that day.
    • However, if I only have 1 hour available per day and am assigned a 1-hour task at 100%, Iโ€™ll be at 100% capacity (effectively a full day).

    For more information on resource availability, check out this article: Manage resource availability
    For details on assigning work: Assign work to team members in Resource Management

    If this doesnโ€™t fully answer your question, could you provide more context and possibly some screen captures showing how youโ€™re setting up the project in Resource Management?

    Cheers,

    Isaac.
