Multi-team planning in Resources
Multi-team planning in the Resources module
With the multi-team planning in Resources, you can analyze team capacity, detect unused capacity, and balance workloads.

Select the Multi-team planning swimlane from the View drop-down.
Update team allocations
Once you identify workload imbalances, you can adjust the plan.
Drag and drop a task to another team.
Update teams and estimates.
To confirm, click Save. The task is now visible in both swimlanes.
Move tasks from backlog
You can use the multi-team planning feature when dragging and dropping tasks from the Backlog panel.
Open Backlog and find a task.
Drag and drop the task to one team swimlane.
Select teams and provide time estimates.
To confirm, click Save.
Multi-team planning vs. original estimates
In the Resources module, you can use either the multi-team planning feature or the Original estimate field.
If a task doesn't have a multi-team planning estimate, BigPicture automatically uses the value from the Original estimate field.
As soon as you add a multi-team planning estimate, it takes priority. The original estimate stays on the task, but it's no longer used in workload calculations.
