When a resource's contract comes to an end, there's no need to go through the hassle of rebuilding the entire project.
Instead of deleting a project assignment from a departing resource and creating it again for a new resource, simply reassign (reallocate) the existing assignment.
You can reallocate assignment hours from the Project: People or Project: Phase view of the Schedule page or resign from the Edit Assignment dialog.
From the Project: People or Project: Phase view:
- Hover your cursor over a Person (1) or Role in the list of resources or tap the row if using a mobile device. The row color changes to indicate the Person or Role affected.
- When the floating action buttons appear, select the More Actions (2) button and then select Reassign (3).
- In the Select Person (4) field, select a new Person (5) or Role from the drop-down list.
From the Edit Assignment dialog:
- Select the open space between Hours boxes in the Assignment Bar (1) to open the Edit Assignment dialog.
- Select the Assign To (2) field and then select a new Person (3) or Role from the drop-down list.
- Select Apply (4) when complete to save.
Tip: Select the Hide Empty Rows button to hide any resources without active assignments.
