The resource load inspector is a powerful tool that help you to get a clear view over the current work load and assignments of a team or any subset of team members. It can be accessed directly from the Folio's Team browser by:

  • Clicking on the Resource load link next to Team Members for the work load information of the whole team,
  • Clicking on the Resource load link next to Titles/Roles for the work load information of all resources with that title,
  • Multi-selecting members or titles for the work load information of a custom subset of team members.

The Resource Load inspector is divided in 3 parts:

Work Left

Shows the amount of work Left or in other words, the remaining work of the Folio's scope to date where:

  • Sum of Remaining estimates: Sum of the remaining estimates of all unresolved issues in the current Folio.

  • Assigned: Sum of the remaining estimates of unresolved issues that are assigned.

  • Unassigned: Sum of the remaining estimates of unresolved issues that are not yet assigned.

  • Issues: Number of unresolved issues.

Resource load by Title

Lists all the members grouped by title. The following information is shown for each team member :

  • Status bar. A coloured vertical bar next to the member's avatar giving some indications on her status.
  • Name. Full name of the member. Hovering the name brings up the standard JIRA user popup.
  • Capacity: Total number of regular work hours that the member has available until the end of the Folio. This is determined by the team member's allocations and the work schedule.
  • Assigned: Sum of the remaining estimates of unresolved issues that are assigned to the team member.
  • Available effort: Portion of the capacity that was not yet assigned. Overload appears in red.
  • Issues: Number of unresolved issues assigned.
Total

Sum of the selection values above.

All the values that were computed based on issues part of the Folio's scope have direct links to the issues navigator of JIRA showing the issues involved.

Issues Viewer

Issue links let you have a quick look at them without leaving FOLIO, avoiding lengthy browsing to the issue navigator. The inline issues viewer shows a small subset of key issue information and links to the issue's page for more details.
