FOLIO introduces the notion of Team in JIRA. Its main goal is to identify the individuals assigned to the project and capture their wages and availability over the course of the project; both current and future. Project managers plan work assignment, see who is currently working on the project and what percentage of that persons time is dedicated to the project. Not only that, they can also manage yet to be filled positions. Image Removed Anchor |

It also displays the average wage of the team and of each titles/roles.

The average wage:
The average wage is the current pondered average wage of all the active members in the team based on their current availabilities defined in the wages table.
The active members are the members with a valid wage to date. Also, the unfulfilled positions (unassigned members) does not intervene in the average wage computation.
The Team Members:
Team members are JIRA users that actively work and record hours on a portfolio's scope.
For each team member listed, the team browser will show its:
Name: The Worklogs inspector is a powerful tool to visualize who has logged work on one or more issues part of the portfolio's scope and within its time frame.
It will also allow you to quickly add the users with work done in the portfolio's team even if the user was deleted from JIRA.
Image Added
The worklogs inspector regroups the users under their role/title if members of the team else it will regroup them under the "Not registered in Team"
For each user the inspector will display its:
- Name. The full name of the member. Hovering the name will show the "JIRA user popup"
Image RemovedImage Added - Effective date: Date at which the team member was set as active. It is based on the effective First log: The date of the first memberwork log that occurs within the portfolio's wage.Current wagetime frame
- Last Log: The actual wage of the member to date.
- Overhead: The overhead of a member identifies the amount of work that was not credited to the portfolio.
It is computed by subtracting the worked hours from the maximum effort to date (based on the availability of the wage table) divided by the the maximum effort to date. - Resource Load: A small bar chart that shows the allocated hours and the available hours left.
If the allocated hours exceeds the maximum effort available, then a red bar will indicate the overload of the memberdate of the last work log that occurs within the portfolio's time frame - Sum of Hours: The sum of all the hours logged on issues part of the portfolio's scope and within its time frame.
- Add button: If listed under the "Not registered in Team" you can quickly add the user as a member by clicking on the button. (See add member)

The Color Codes:
In order to help identifying the problems quickly FOLIO introduces a color code next to the member's avatar.
A green bar identifies a regular member.
A yellow bar indicates that the member has no current wage thus is not yet active.
A red bar indicates that the member is overloaded (see resource load).wages associated with some worklogs
A grey bar identifies an unfulfilled position; an unassigned member that acts as a placeholder.a user not registered in the team
A black bar identifies a member that is associated with a deleted JIRA user.Image Removed
