applying vacation or unavailable time to resources
Hello,
I am an MS project user and in that program you could denote unavailable time for resources so when a task assigned to that person fell on an unavailable time period, the start and end dates accomodated for that automatically. Is there a way to do that in SS?
thank you,
Karen

Hi Karen, check out this thread where users discuss ideas for tracking vacation time: https://community.smartsheet.com/discussion/how-can-i-use-smartsheet-track-employee-time-offvacation-schedules
- We also have a blog post which explains how to use resource management to track vacation time: http://www.smartsheet.com/blog/support-tip-manage-vacation-schedules-resource-management

For various reasons, we can't use an over allocation indicator to signal when an resource is on vacation. We really need the project planner to treat those days for that resource in the same way that it treats all resources for non-work days.
This is the main feature holding us back from fully utilizing Smartsheets for project management.
