Managing Labels

The Role Planner within the Resource Manager application allows schedulers to create and assign labels for each week within a role’s timeline. These labels can help categorize project sub-sections, such as sequences or milestones, to provide better organization and visibility for project planning. Labels are customizable and can represent any desired categorization.

By effectively managing labels within the Role Planner, schedulers can categorize project sub-sections and improve project organization. This feature allows teams to visualize and track progress within specific segments of a project, facilitating efficient resource allocation and informed decision-making throughout the project lifecycle.
