Improvements 'Planning Resources'

Three major improves will make planning of resources a lot easier and more efficient.

1. View totals in 'Planning Resources'

To get an actual view of the overall availability of resources visualized in time, it's possible to see the totals of working hours, planned hours and available hours. These totals can be turned on and off with the settings wheel.

2. See if resources are on track

Are hours spent as planned? The answer on this question is an important indication of the probability that the project wil be finished in time. Now it's possible to get insight in the actual hours vs planned hours by adding these columns to the view of 'Planning Resources'.

3. Planning Resources: Change planned hours

No need to navigate to the project to change the planning. Just tap on a cell to change the planned hours.

Project planning

The visualization of the project planning when accessed from the project card is improved. The biggest issue was the poor navigation and visualization. This is solved by starting function 'Planning projects', filtered by the project from which the planning is accessed. To get a complete view, deliverables are automatically collapsed.

My planning

Just like the project planning (as described above), the visualization and navigation of 'My planning' caused friction because its poor UI. This is solved by starting 'Planning Resources' filtered by the current employee which makes navigating thru time and changing planned hours (by tapping on cells) much easier.
