A resource is an entity used for a project, it carries a capacity : a number of days available to carry out an activity, and it can therefore be associated with a cost.
A resource may be associated with a certain hierarchical level, it may also have a profile (architect, project manager, developer...), and a type (internal, external...).
There are two types of resources:
- Named resource Assigned to a user identified and monitoring for the project.
Users Most named resources are created automatically when the user is created. In some cases, however, it may be necessary to create the resource afterwards, in which case it's important to know that the CODE is what associates the user with the resource.
- Generic resource: Enables work capacity to be defined according to a chosen axis (skills, team, external resource). The generic resource is used when the identification of a named resource is impossible or unnecessary (at the start of a project, for example, when the need for an expert is known, but the name of the expert has not yet been identified).
The resource linked to the logged-in user can be consulted directly via My resource

Example:
If I choose Before the and the date of January 1, 2026then all the capacities of my resources before the January 1, 2026 will be equal to 0.

This button calculates the resource's capacity based on the resource's schedule. No access and Percentage of activity filled.
This allows you to change the past capacities of resources.
A window appears and the field Start capacity calculation from this date is to be filled in with the date from which capacities will be updated (new percentage of activity, changes to the resource schedule)
