Hello,
I have a question about resource view. At the moment, we just can see the projects under resources. But it’d be more helpful if we can see the tasks as well.
Is it possible?
And, can I see the whole projects FTE somewhere reported?
Regards,
Hello Leila,
Thanks for your post! There isn't currently a way to see the tasks that a resource is assigned to directly in the resource view. If you want to see specific tasks, you'll want to open the sheet itself and create a filter on the Contact List or Assigned To column to see tasks assigned to a the specific resource (https://help.smartsheet.com/articles/504659-using-filters-to-show-or-hide-sheet-data). If you want to see tasks assigned to specific people across multiple sheets, you can use a Smartsheet report (https://help.smartsheet.com/articles/522214-creating-reports).
By FTE, I presume that you're referring to Full Time Equivalent or the total workload capacity of the project overall, correct? There isn't currently a feature in Smartsheet that tracks the Full Time Equivalent for the project, however you can likely create a formula to track this. This will most likely be an AVGW (weighted average) function. For example, =AVGW([Allocation %]:[Allocation %], Duration:Duration) will return the average allocation percentage of all tasks in the project weighted by task duration, effectively giving you the overall FTE of the project (https://help.smartsheet.com/function/avgw)
If needed, you can submit a Product Enhancement Request with the quick link to the right.
I hope this helps!

Hi and thanks. in the formula =AVGW([Allocation %]:[Allocation %], Duration:Duration) , instead of Allocation% I put effort and it does kind of make sense.
How can I delete old sheets I no longer use from my account?
I'm trying to display a task progress chart showing "complete", "late", and "not complete" in my dashboard and for some reason the chart will display as a column chart but it won't display as a donut chart even though I'm referencing the same report. I'd prefer to display as a donut chart as I think it looks better and is…
Hello, I am trying to create a chart widget in my dashboard, but I keep getting "Selected data cannot be charted. Please select a new range." error. The report I am using is already summarized in numeric value. What is funny is I have report that I created a chart widget in another dashboard, and when I use that same…
