Expand the projects and the job roles to manage the allocation for the project, job roles, or users.

To budget allocation for users do one of the following:

• In the BDG column, manually specify a number of budgeted hours, FTE, or cost for the users.

• Click the More menu for the job role of the user, then click Set Users’ Planned Hours as Budgeted.
  The Budgeted Hours of each user are calculated using the following formula:

  User Budgeted Hours = User Planned Hours

To budget allocation for job roles, do one of the following:

• In the BDG column, manually specify a number of budgeted hours, FTE, or cost for the job role.

  note note
  NOTE
  The Role Budgeted Hours are added to the Project Budgeted Hours.

• (Conditional) If you have budgeted hours for users, click the More menu for the job role, then click Total Users’ Budgeted Hours for Role.
  The Budgeted Hours for each role are calculated using the following formula:

  Role Budgeted Hours = SUM(User Budgeted Hours)

• Click the More menu for the project, then click Set Roles’ Planned Hours as Budgeted.
  The Budgeted Hours for each role are calculated using the following formula:
  *

  Role Budgeted Hours = Role Planned Hours

  note note
  NOTE
  The Role Budgeted Hours are added to the Project Budgeted Hours. Users can be budgeted for both Primary and Other (or secondary) Roles. The Percentage of FTE Availability for the roles of the user must be a number different than 0% for the Available Hours to display a value in the Resource Planner for a job role. If a user is associated with a role with a 0% Percentage of FTE Availability, the Available Hours value is zero for that job role. In this case, the role might show a negative Net Value. For more information about the Percentage of FTE Availability for job roles, see the article Edit a user’s profile.

• In the BDG column, manually specify a number of budgeted hours, FTE, or cost for the project. This distributes the number of Project Budgeted Hours to each role under the project. The following scenarios exist:

  • If the number of Project Budgeted Hours your specify equals the Project Planned Hours, the Role Budgeted Hours match the Role Planned Hours.
  • If the number of Project Budgeted Hours you specify does not equal the Project Planned Hours, the Role Budgeted Hours are distributed according to the percentage of Planned Hours needed for each role.
    For example, if a project has 20 Planned Hours, and they are distributed between two job roles (Consultant requires 12 Planned Hours and Engineer requires 8 Planned Hours), and you budget 30 hours for the Project, the hours are distributed as follows: the Consultant role receives 18 Budgeted Hours, and the Engineer role receives 12 Budgeted Hours.

To budget allocation for the project, do one of the following:

• Budget the roles under the project, as described in Step 7.
  The Project Budgeted Hours is calculated by the following formula:

  Project Budgeted Hours = SUM(Role Budgeted Hours)

• In the BDG column, manually specify a number of budgeted hours, FTE, or cost for the project.
  This updates the Role Budgeted Hours, as described in Step 7.
