Do you manage 1 resource for each person or 1 resource for the whole team ?

The "fake" project idea is not a good one (IMO).
Better have correct affectation rate (30%, 40%) on project for corresponding resource, or correct assignment rate on activity for corresponding resource.
Difference is that assignment rate is on a daily basis and affectation rate on a weekley basis.
This means that :
- resource affected 40% on a project will work only 2 days a week on the project (but they can be full days, let's say every monday and tuesday)
- resource assigned 40% on activity will work only 0,4 days par day on the activity, but can work additional 0,6 days on another activity on same project.
You can also mix rates.

Thanks for reply quickly,

I use Projetqtor IDE in french, what is the name of the field to use "ressource affected" and "ressource assigned"?

My plan to manage human ressource is not defined, I'm checking all the possibilities; what is your recommendation, use one resource for each person or 1 resource for the whole team?

"ressource affected" = "ressource affectée" => a ressource is affected to a project on project screen or on resource screen
"ressource assigned" = "ressource assignée" => a resource is assigned to a task in the Activity screen

Thanks a lot, the translation was not difficult :blush: but your explication is good :woohoo:

I will try this on your software,

Thanks

I try to assign directly on the Activity screen, but no resource is available (on the list), do you know why?

Because no resource if affected to the project : you did not define the project team.
First affect resources to the project.

Ah ok, for example, I affect 100% on the project screen and if I affect on the task 40%, so the ressource will work 0.4 day every day of the week, is it right?

Je mets la traduction en Francais pour éviter les quiproquos avec l'anglais:

Si j'alloue 100% de la ressource au projet et 40% sur la partie de la tache (activité), alors la ressource travaillera 0.4 jour sur cette tache tous les jpours de la semaine.

If I mix, I affect 80% on the project screen and if I affect on the task 40%, so the ressource will work 0.4 day during 4 days every week.

Si je mélange les deux, et j'alloue 80% de la ressource au projet et 40% sur la partie de la tache (activité), alors la ressource travaillera 0.4 jour sur cette tache pendant 4 jours de la semaine.

Dis moi si j'ai bien compris..

No.
Resource will work 0,4 days each day, with a maximum of 4 days of work per week on the project. In your case, the affectation rate has no effect as 0,4 x 5 = 2days, which is less than limit of 4 days. In your case, affectation rate to project will have effects only if resource is assigned to other tasks on same project.

Sorry but I don't understand. Your answer was for which ratio?

Could you explain me again with this number?

Project Screen: 100% Activity Screen: 40% ----> ressource will work ...

Project Screen: 80% Activity Screen: 40% ----> ressource will work ...

because I don't understand what is the impact of the Project Screen Ratio.

Hope it will be more clear with a small tables with all possibilities for project affectation rate combined with activitie assignment rate for values 100%, 80% and 40%

Thanks a lot Babynus, sometimes, one image explains better than 1000 words B)

Hi Babynus

One question more, my team is working on "real projects" and "run projects" (activities from day to day), so if I want to plan some projects and my "run projects", what is your recommendation to plan it on ProjeQtOr? because "run projects" is a task that is cyclic but I don't know how to add it on ProjeQtOr (which planning uses ... etc)

PD: I know the % that my team is free for "real projects" and the other % to do only "run projects".

Use the "regular between dates" planning mode. It's done for this.
You define start and end dates (for instance 01/01 => 31/12) and assign resource with expected work for the period. Planning will reserve work, reguliarly.
You can also opt for "in half days" or "in full days" if you don't work to book 0,1 day par day.
