Resource Planning Screens Modernized

What Has Been Enhanced?

CMiC updated the Resource Planning tool's UI with a more modern look to improve the overall design and user experience. Resource Planning is a visual resource management tool, used to help schedulers and project managers review and manage the resource needs of projects. It can also be used to identify when resources are being used too little or too much. This is achieved by providing visual overviews of project needs and of resource usage and by providing tools to search for and display relevantly skilled personnel or suitable equipment, which can then be drag-and-dropped to needy projects.

NOTE: This feature was released in Patch 19.

What Does it Look Like?

The Resource Planning Detail and Summary screens have been given a fresh, modern look, with the same underlying functionality.
