Thanks for your feedback David,
My query has now been resolved and I can clearly identify individual resources for their over-allocations against activities for each time period they are assigned to (using the Resource Usage Profile view).
I suppose it would have been handy to have an automated feature in Primavera to prompt planners as soon as we assigned a resource that was already assigned to some other task in the same time scale.
Once again, thanks for your response.
Faisal.
PS: Many thanks to Andrew Dick & Mark Roberts for their valued feedback & help on the same topic.
Hi,
If I understand your requirements you should be able to isolate your multiple assigned resources by selecting the resource histograme layout (bottom half of the screen seems best).
Set the Resource filter to show current project(s) assignments.
When you select a single resource you can also apply a secondary filter flaged in the bottom left of the screen. "Display Activities for selected..."
If you tick "Resource", only the tasks with the selected resource will be displayed. You will see if any assignments are in conflict and by how much by setting an availablity limit on the resource.
