  2. Once invited, your team members will automatically sync from Jira to the Resource section in TeamBoard TimePlanner.

Step 2: View Resource Profiles

  1. From the ‘Members’ section, locate the ‘All Resources’ tab to display the list of all resources in your organization.

  2. Click on individual resource names to view their detailed profile, including positions, departments, skills, and availability.

Step 3: Update Resource Details

Navigate to individual resource profiles, then access the ‘Edit profile’ button:

  1. Job Title: Specify the role or job title (e.g., Developer, Designer). To update a new position, access the ‘Data Fields’ from the App Settings.

Step 5: Set up Capacity Scheme and Holidays

  1. Working Capacity

This section allows for the adjustment of a resource's capacity to undertake tasks or projects, ensuring optimal workload distribution. To adjust a resource's capacity, find the 'Working Capacity' section from the App Settings. Here, you can assign a capacity scheme to the resource and custom availability patterns based on the specific needs of your projects.
