  • Any user with the resource_user role can open My Calendar to view, add, and modify their planned work, actual work, operational work, administrative tasks, and personal activities.

    After a user adds an event to the calendar, the time blocks for that event appear as red, indicating busy, on the resource console and the resource availability dashboard.

    Resource managers view users' calendars to determine who has open time to complete tasks, and can add tasks to any resource's personal calendar. For every event that is created on a user's calendar, a record is created in the User Calendar Event [user_calendar_event] table. Resource events are chunks of busy time for the user. Users and resource managers can sometimes modify these records. See Resource event modifications.

    The calendar uses time zones. Time is displayed to users in their local time zone according to user preferences. See Time zones in resource plans.

    Each resource event is represented with a specific color. PPS admin can change these colors. See Change the resource event color

    Note:
    Although a user can add tasks, such as incidents, to their calendar, the user isn’t added to the task's Assigned to field.
