Add Resource Management Default Option to Sync Hours vs. Allocation %

Our team prefers viewing resource allocation in hours rather than percentages. Currently, the Resource Management tool defaults to syncing Allocation % only. Is there a way to sync the Hours column instead and display allocation in hours in the Resource Management tool?

In the Assignment Details report, availability can be viewed in hours per day, but you must manually set each task to display in "Hours per day," which is time-consuming. We'd prefer the option to default this view so all tasks in Assignment Details are shown in hours automatically.

Absolutely agree. Viewing resource allocation in hours provides a much clearer picture for planning and capacity. It would be incredibly helpful to have the option to sync and display allocation in hours by default, both in the Resource Management tool and in the Assignment Details report, to save time and reduce manual adjustments.

I totally support this request. My organisation is trialling Resource Management and have the same issue.

Yes, please. And while you're in there, add the option to default to TOTAL HOURS as well. We assign projects to artists as a bucket of hours and these projects could span 1 week to several months with many, many adjustments, gaps, start-stops, and splits as they work (or don't work) on them.

Asset Sharing should default to View, not Edit
Since the license model has changed, the option to Share should default to VIEW, not EDIT. The View option allows less-experienced users to share that way by default, and share as Edit only when needed. This allows for less cleanup during true-up. This also prevents users from adding provisional licenses unknowingly.
