Troubleshooting and setup
The Resources module aggregates data from all sub-boxes in the portfolio. The view is based on individual users or teams.
Portfolio box teams
A portfolio should have the same teams as the boxes it contains.
Issue: Capacity can't be calculated because Portfolio teams have no team members.
Solution: Assign teams to the portfolio box.
If the Teams module isn't active, activate, activate it.
Go to the Teams module in the portfolio.
Use the Assign existing team option.
Add teams that match the boxes in the portfolio. Teams have to be added one by one.
Failed to reassign a task
The Resources module allows you to move a task (a task gets reassigned).
Issue: A task cannot be assigned to a team because that team doesn't exist in both boxes (portfolio and the task the box is in).
