The resource scope is the set of projects that MacProject II takes into account when calculating a resource’s work load. MacProject II looks only at the tasks assigned to the resource in the current project unless you expand the scope to include other projects. The resource scope applies to all the resources in the project.
The number available for a resource is the maximum level at which the resource should work. For example, 1.00 is a single resource working full time (“full time” as determined by the calendar for this resource). You set this number in the

Resource Table, and it is shown in the Resource Histogram as a bold horizontal line. If a resource’s work load goes above this number, it is over-allocated for that period. Work over the number appears above the line in the Resource Histogram; on a color device, it is displayed in red.
If a resource is over-allocated, you can adjust some of its work assignments yourself to alleviate the problem or MacProject II can level the resources for you by making the changes in the schedule.
