The Resource View
The Resource View shows resource groups and their respective resources thus visualizing capacity bottlenecks and date conflicts

Elements and symbols in the Resource View
Calendar
A calendar in the background of the Gantt chart shows weekends in grey, working times in white.
Absences of employees that are linked to resources are visualized in a light pink in the calendar and by a corresponding capacity curve.
Bars
Each job task is represented by a bar, the color of the job planning line bars depending on the job's category. The Job categories are indicated as follows:

A red frame indicates changes having not been saved yet, the orange frame highlights the currently marked task.
Sorting order

Capacity curve
In the VJS, you can show a capacity curve in the Resource View to see free and exceeded capacities, a red box indicating an overload:
Creation mode
With the help of the creation mode, planners can interactively allocate a job task to a resource by dragging it from the list to the chart.
