Can 'Working Days' settings vary per assignee in sprint planning?

Hi!

Working with one of the Smartsheet sprint planning templates and would like to be able to set different working patterns as two parties contributing to the sprint.

i.e. Team 1 work Mon-Friday 8 hour day but Team 2 work everyday except Friday.

Setting the working days in Smartsheet for either Team means that the opposing team is then scheduled (from a resourcing and duration perspective) incorrectly.

Setting a 7 day work week for example within a 14 day sprint with Task XX taking 6x days means that Team 1 are scheduled to work on a Saturday (when they don't work) rather than a Mon-Fri + Mon.

Am I missing something really obvious as a workaround? Should I be approaching this differently?

Many thanks!

Hi Jessica,

At this time working days can be set at the sheet level and at the account level, but it's not currently possible to set working days by resource. This would be a great opportunity to submit a Product Enhancement Request.

However, 10,000ft, a resource management platform that has been recently acquired by Smartsheet, does allow for working days at the resource level.

If needed, more information on this can be found here: https://help.smartsheet.com/learning-track/best-practice-webinars/elevate-your-resource-management-10000ft
