Scheduler Dashboard
Visualize team availability, project timelines, and potential conflicts.
Overview
The Scheduler Dashboard gives you the big picture of your organization's resources. It's designed to answer three key questions:
- "Who is available?"
- "Who is overloaded?"
- "Are projects meeting their deadlines?"
Views
Resource View (Top-Down)
See a row for each employee, piece of equipment, or room.
- Green: Available / On-Track
- Yellow: Near Capacity (e.g., 35/40 hours booked)
- Red: Over-Booked (e.g., 50/40 hours booked)
- Grey: Time Off / Holiday
Project View (Bottom-Up)
Filter by project to see:
- Timeline of all tasks assigned to that project.
- Resources allocated to specific phases.
- Gantt chart visualization of dependencies.
