Hello there!

 

Is there a way to set my ressources holidays in PL?

Some of them will miss weeks, so I need my Gantt to include their holidays.

 

Thanks!!!!

Hello Danny,

Access the Resource Guide - Resource option.
You will need to insert three columns, they are:

Available from
available for
Max Units

With this information you can set the start date and end date of your holiday, the units should be with 0% indicating that you will be unavailable during this period.

Hope this helps.

Hi, 

The solution from Hezequias didn't work for me but I found another way. 

- Go to the Resources tab > Click the Resources button on the toolbar

- Select the Resource you want to add holiday for.

- Click on the Calendar button on the toolbar

- In the calendar, select the day when the resource is on holiday, then select the "Non-Working time" radio   button. 

- Repeat for all days that the resource is on holiday. 

- Hit the <OK> button and Save the pod file. 

- Go back to the Gannt view and you'll probably notice the holidays have not been applied and the dates are still the same. 

- Restart Project Libre and open the pod file again. 

- The Holidays should now have been applied and your project dates changed to reflect them. 

Hope this helps.
