Allocation

This Document can be found in the following categories:

The PDWare Portfolio allocation algorithm uses the capacity of a resource (as specified on the Resource Capacity sheet) to meet demand starting with the highest priority projects. When there is no remaining capacity, we stop "allocating" to meet demand for that resource.

The application never changes any values entered by the responsible users. The allocation algorithm is used only for highlighting and analysis purposes.

There are several optimization options that trigger allocation of unused capacity to meet skill or resource supply shortfall.
