Workload, capacity, and utilization - tile coloring
Coloring
The tile colors indicate whether resources are over-allocated or under-allocated. The new view in the Resources module introduces updated coloring rules, where each tile color corresponds to a specific level of resource utilization.
Utilization calculation
workload based on task information:
original estimate
story points
capacity (one of the two kinds of capacity is used for the calculation)
team-based capacity - capacity based on individual memberships in teams
Total capacity - capacity based on workload plans, holiday plans, and absences
Individuals, projects, and skills
green - utilization under 100%
red - utilization is above 100%
Note: yellow is NOT used to indicate approaching over-allocation.
Example: if a person has been assigned 7.8h of workload and their capacity is 8h, the grid cell is green
Teams
green - 0% to 80% utilization
yellow - 80 to 101% utilization
red - 101% or higher utilization
Example:
Grouping
When grouping is enabled, the coloring rules for the Teams and Individual swimlanes are applied.
