Resource Entities

The ongoing management of resources typically involves managing one or more entities among calendars, work schedules, shifts, work skills, and work zones.

Calendars, Work Schedules, and Shifts – This involves creating calendars that illustrate when a resource is available for work and when they are off duty. Between calendars, work schedules, non-working time, internal activities, holidays, and shifts, a great deal of flexibility is available in the application. Some parameters can be set in advance for planning, and others are considered more day-to-day adjustments.

Work Skills –This refers to the correlation between what is required to complete incoming activities, and which resources have the capabilities to accomplish them.

Work Zones – This refers to the area within which a resource is able or allowed to travel to complete activities.
