Resource Load

The resource load inspector is a powerful tool that allows you to see the work load of the folio's team, one or more team titles/roles or even on a custom selection of team members. It can be accessed directly from the folio's team browser by:

• Clicking on the "resoucre load" link next to Team Members for the whole team resource load
• Clicking on the "resoucre load" link next to Titles/Roles for the whole Titles/Roles resource load
• Multi-selecting members or titles/roles (Shift + click or Cmd + click) directly in the team browser.

The Resource Load inspector is divided in 3 main sections.

1. Work Left

   The header of the resource load inspector is the "Work Left" or in other words, the remaining work of the scope to date where:

   • Sum of Remaining estimates is the sum of the remaining estimates of all issues that are not yet earned (done).

   • Assigned is the sum of the remaining estimates of the issues that are not yet earned (done) but that are assigned to a member.

   • Unassigned is the sum of the remaining estimates of the issues that are not yet earned (done) but are not yet assigned to any members

   • Issues is the number of issues that are not yet earned (done)
     
     

2. The Roles/Titles resource loads
   
   List all the members under their title/role with their:
   • Name. The full name of the member. Hovering the name will show the "JIRA user popup"
     
   • Maximum effort available from today until the end of the folio based on its availabilities
   • Assigned effort based on the remaining estimates of the issues that are not yet earned (done) and assigned to the member
   • Available effort based the portion of the maximum effort that was not yet assigned. A negative value indicates an overload (will appear in red)
   • Issues, the number of issues assigned to the member the are not yet earned (done)
     
     
3. The Total
   
   A simple sum of the selection values above.

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).
A grey bar identifies an unfulfilled position; an unassigned member that acts as a placeholder.
A black bar identifies a member that is associated with a deleted JIRA user.
