Manage Workload
The workload is calculated by dividing the scheduled hours by the capacity hours. For example, if a user has a capacity of 8 hours and is scheduled for 6 hours, their workload is 6h/8h (yellow color).
Click the Workload button in the menu and view the workload of each user.
Switch the view to see the workload for your entire team.

The workload is color-coded for easy understanding:
Green: Full workload.
Yellow: Underworked.
Red: Overworked.
Grey: No scheduled hours.
This color-coding helps you quickly identify who is overloaded and who can take on more tasks.
If you notice an imbalance in workload, you can reassign tasks directly from the Board.
