Task Assignment Duration in the Resources Screen


The number displayed on the Resources screen represents the duration hours of task assignments.


Assigning Hours to a Task

  • You can add hours to a task assignment from the Assignments tab or the Resources tab.
  • In the System Calculations section, there is a field labeled "Hours Assigned."
  • The hours entered in this field are evenly distributed across the task assignment days.

Example Calculation

If you assign 6 hours to a task spanning 3 days, the Resources tab will display 2 hours per day (6 ÷ 3 = 2).

Additional Notes

  • The Hours Duration field is visible when assigning a task via the New button in the Assignments tab or the New Assignment option in the Resources tab.
  • The hourly breakdown is visible only when the Timeline Scale is set to Week.
