Skills Setup

A skill is an ability or capacity needed to execute a specific task or assignment. The skill feature enables you or the manager to determine the qualifications required to accomplish a task in a project. Therefore, the skill feature is an available component that allows you to optimize the use of the Resource Management module.

The Resource Management module allows managers to schedule resources to specific projects based on their resource types, skills, proficiency, availability and user calendars. Managers run queries to find resources matching specific criteria, that may include skills, and then assign them to projects to streamline the workforce planning process and eliminate periods during which resources are idle.

The articles in this section detail how to set up Skills to match resource qualifications with project tasks. Improve workforce planning and resource allocation using the Resource Management module.
