      0% Resource Allocation for Enhanced Flexibility in Keka PSA

      Optimize project planning, improve resource utilization, and streamline your project management processes.

      We're excited to introduce a small but powerful update in Keka PSA: 0% resource allocation! This feature allows project managers to assign team members to projects without committing them to specific hours. Let's dive into the benefits of 0% allocation and how to use it effectively for temporary assignments, resource pooling, and project planning.

       

      Why Use 0% Allocation?

      1. Temporary Assignments: Ideal for temporarily assigning team members without locking them into specific hours. This helps for situations where you need their involvement but aren’t assigning exact tasks.
      2. Resource Pooling: Enables the creation of a flexible resource pool, making it easy to assign individuals to projects on demand.
      3. Advanced Project Planning: Allows project managers to plan for future resource needs without immediate commitment, streamlining preparation.

      • Flexibility: Quickly adjust to project changes or resource availability.
      • Improved Planning: Pre-allocate team members for future projects without assigning hours.
      • Optimized Resource Management: Balance workloads better by distributing resources based on project requirements.
