While you can add an assignment to a resource by completing the fields in the **New Assignment** dialog, using this method requires that you enter assignment dates and hours. So, what do you do if you don't have the exact dates or hours yet? Add the project as a place holder from the **People** view. #### Step 1: Add Project - From the **People** view on the Schedule page, hover your cursor over a person or role in the list, or tap the row if using a mobile device. The row color changes to indicate the person you are selecting. - When the floating action icons display, select the ![add button-1](https://support.audere.com/hs-fs/hubfs/add%20button-1.png?width=26&name=add%20button-1.png) **Add** icon and then select **Project** from the list.  ![Managing People\_11](https://support.audere.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Managing%20People_11.png?width=688&height=355&name=Managing%20People_11.png) **Note:** This functionality is only available for Resource Managers, Administrators and Owners. #### Step 2: Select a Project A new project line is added, and a list of existing projects displays. - Select a project from the **Project** drop-down list.  - Archived projects won't display in the **Project** drop-down list. ![Managing People\_12](https://support.audere.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Managing%20People_12.png?width=448&height=377&name=Managing%20People_12.png) The resource and project are now associated but with no assignment. This association is also visible from the **Projects** view.   **Note:** An assignment can’t be added to an archived project.   To learn how to add an assignment with specific dates and hours allocated, see [Add an Assignment](https://support.audere.com/add-assignment?hsLang=en). --- **See Also:** [Deleting Assignments](https://support.audere.com/deleting-assignments?hsLang=en) [Changing Assignment Dates](https://support.audere.com/change-assignment-dates?hsLang=en) [Adding a Photo to a Resource Profile](https://support.audere.com/how-do-i-add-a-photo-to-a-profile?hsLang=en) - [Getting Started](https://support.audere.com/getting-started?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Welcome](https://support.audere.com/getting-started?hsLang=en#welcome) - [Quick Start Guide](https://support.audere.com/getting-started?hsLang=en#quick-start-guide) - [What's New](https://support.audere.com/whats-new?hsLang=en#main-content) - [2026 Release Notes](https://support.audere.com/whats-new?hsLang=en#2026-release-notes) - [2025 Release Notes](https://support.audere.com/whats-new?hsLang=en#2025-release-notes) - [2024 Release Notes](https://support.audere.com/whats-new?hsLang=en#2024-release-notes) - [2023 Release Notes](https://support.audere.com/whats-new?hsLang=en#2023-release-notes) - [2022 Release Notes](https://support.audere.com/whats-new?hsLang=en#2022-release-notes) - [Projects](https://support.audere.com/projects?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Managing Projects](https://support.audere.com/projects?hsLang=en#managing-projects) - [Managing Phases](https://support.audere.com/projects?hsLang=en#managing-phases) - [People](https://support.audere.com/people?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Managing People](https://support.audere.com/people?hsLang=en#managing-people) - [Managing Assignments](https://support.audere.com/people?hsLang=en#managing-assignments) - [Smart Suggestions](https://support.audere.com/people?hsLang=en#smart-suggestions) - [Filters and Views](https://support.audere.com/filters-and-views?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Managing Schedule Views](https://support.audere.com/filters-and-views?hsLang=en#managing-schedule-views) - [Managing Schedule Filters](https://support.audere.com/filters-and-views?hsLang=en#managing-schedule-filters) - [Manage Settings](https://support.audere.com/manage-settings?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Personal Settings](https://support.audere.com/manage-settings?hsLang=en#personal-settings) - [Account Settings](https://support.audere.com/manage-settings?hsLang=en#account-settings) - [Multiple Accounts](https://support.audere.com/manage-settings?hsLang=en#multiple-accounts) - [FAQs](https://support.audere.com/faqs?hsLang=en) - [Tips and Tricks](https://support.audere.com/tips-and-tricks?hsLang=en) - [Integration](https://support.audere.com/integration?hsLang=en#main-content) - [General](https://support.audere.com/integration?hsLang=en#general) - [API Keys](https://support.audere.com/integration?hsLang=en#api-keys) - [Events](https://support.audere.com/integration?hsLang=en#events) [![Audere ](https://support.audere.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Audere_Logo_Color_RGB_TM.png?width=127&height=24&name=Audere_Logo_Color_RGB_TM.png "Audere ")](https://audere.com) Copyright © 2026, Audere
