[SOLVED] Resource affectation

Hi

While trying to find a solution to my topic "9528-planning-calculation", I realize that I got a problem with resource affectation.
Have a look to affectation :

As you can see, there is a "hole" on the bottom of screenshot (between 01/08/2018 and 30/04/2019)
Almost all projects are cut in 2 parts (before 01/08/2018 and after 30/04/2019) except "P052_L001 - 1 - Lot unique" and "P047 - Bilans Normalisés - LOT 3 - Univers & Rapports BO"
I checked all start date and end date in each affectation, I see nothing wrong.
Can you explain me why I got this behaviour ?

Regards

Hi

Happy to see that you consider the "hole" as strange behaviour.
Some answers to your question :

these allocations are very complex, are they really needed to be so complex (several allocations to project...)

As you know, there are many steps during software lifecycle. For example, a project manager will work more during build steps and less during run step. In fact, if I could (If I had enough time to do it), allocations would be more complex because during build step a project manager will work more during specification and test steps and less during development step. That's why you can see several allocations to project. It's the way I found to be near reality.

you don't need to allocate resource to "Absence" if it is an "administrative" project

If I don't allocate resource to "Absence", I won't be able to plan holidays (In France, you have to take rest to respect the law ). In a year, there are 365 days minus 104 days for week end minus 7 days for public holidays. It lets 254 days for working days. In my company, a resource can take until 42 days for vacation by year (25 days for holidays and 17 days for RTT). 42 days divided by 254 days is near 16% of working days ... If I don't "lock" this vacation time with allocation to "administrative project", I could believe that a resource is available more than 100% by year. Later, I will divide year with 2 periods : June to October (In France, Act imposes that a resource takes 20 days for holidays during this period else you have to give until 2 days more for the fractionning of vacation ... Dura Lex Sed Lex) and November to May for the remaining part. But I will wait that you solve my "hole" problem

Hi

Here is a sample :

As you can see there are many steps.

• Between August 2018 and April 2019, the project manager should work around 40% of his time on this project
• Between May 2019 and August 2019, the project manager should work around 25% of his time
• Between September 2019 and December 2019, the project manager should work around 35% of his time
• Between January 2020 and December 2020, the project manager should work around 5% of his time

I don't know how projeqtor could calculate a correct repartition of work if I don't set affectation with availability.
Setting availability help me to see if a resource is affected more than 100% of his time (which means that I had to work to find another resource to do the job ...)
