Can I request a resource directly from a project?

Yes. You can create a project resource request directly from the Manage Project Resources page for planned resources. For example, you can add an engineer resource as a planned resource during project planning.

Then when it's time to begin work you can create a request to assign an engineer to your project.

You can perform the Create Resource Request action for a resource if the following conditions are true:

  • Resource type is Labor

  • Assignment status is Planned

  • Assignment has a From Date and To Date

You can create multiple project resource requests from the Manage Project Resources page. When you select multiple planned resources and click Create Resource Request, the application creates a request for each selected resource.
