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 I’m a resource with 2 hours available per day, and you assign me to a 1-hour task at 100%, I’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%, I’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 doesn’t fully answer your question, could you provide more context and possibly some screen captures showing how you’re setting up the project in Resource Management?

    Cheers,

    Isaac.
