Utilization and Capacity Question

Hi All,

I am trying to setup User Groups, Working Hours, and Capacity to accurately portray utilization. 

My question is, how do you handle a persons utilization when they have a 40 hour work week, but let's say only 16 of those hours are to be considered against their utilization %. If I have them at 40 hours per week, as it stands, their utilization will be very low and will skew the overall number.

I tried looking into Availability, but I'm not quite sure how this works in regards to capacity per user.

Today, we have a report with a formula field looking at Approved Hours/Capacity x 100 to give us each person's Utilization %.

($CapacityOfUserMonthly.LoadForMonthly.LinkObject.ActualApproved/$CapacityOfUserMonthly.Capacity)*100

How can I calculate this for those who work 40 hours per week, but aren't expected to be "billable" for all 40 hours?

Thank you,

Jamie

Hi Jamie,

You could either adjust the calendar to reflect their billable capacity or update the formula. Maybe you could use Approved Hours/(Capacity * (16/40)) x 100 instead of Approved Hours/Capacity x 100 to achieve the desired value.

I hope this helps.
