Hi ,

It might sound pretty stupid . I’m meddling around Resource Planning and set up stuff to get it working . As i understand from the getting started page , we can manage capacity by setting up allocation% in project bookings . So i tried to set allocation% to 0 for the vacation bookings, the results doesn’t reflect in artist chart .

If i interpret it correctly , setting booking as 0 allocation% will be the same as vacation ? If it doesn’t do anything , then what is the purpose of allocation actually? The booking by default is 100% allocation and changing it 0% doesn’t have any effect.

Correct me if i’m wrong 🙂
