Tips:

Why use the Company Planning Board?

Use the company planning board to scheduled tasks for multiple projects. Use the projects to schedule panel to plan when project work will be completed at either the project, sub project, or work breakdown item level. Toggle the display of the planning board to schedule projects for a day, week or month.

Assign staff to the appointments, and the work will be shown in their My Schedule plugin on the My Synergy dashboard, and automatically show as a history row to use within their staff timesheets on the scheduled date for the task.

Check the details of the tasks already planned for the period, using the display options to show the Project, Sub Project, Task ,Rate, Staff or Project Manager details on the items in the planning board.

How to add tasks to the Company Planning Board

In the Company Planning Board it is possible to scheduled task at three different levels. These are:

  1. Project Schedule the project name only, without assigning which sub project or work breakdown item is to be completed.
  2. Sub Project Schedule a sub project, without choosing which work breakdown task will be completed.
  3. Work Breakdown item Schedule a work breakdown item for a specific project/sub project.

Tip: Staff can be assigned to work on the planned appointment in each of the three levels above.

Tip: Drag a new appointment onto any date shown in the planning board calendar. i.e. If the month of August 2018 has been selected the first week of September is also shown in the planning board. Drag a new appointment onto a date in August, or any of the September dates displayed in the planning board calendar.
