Feature Requests

I'd love to have the option to have a monthly view of my resources time/effort allocation in the Workload view.

[from ticket] I want to include my events from my calendar/Google calendar on my workload? It looks like I have availability/capacity for more tasks but then I realise I have 3 meetings for 3hrs

Is it possible to add a feature where you can list out the tasks someone is assigned to under their name in the Workload view? This would be super helpful to our team to easily see what each person is working on throughout the month without the view being too overwhelming (our Leadership has indicated the current Workload Gantt view can be overwhelming to navigate through).

I would appreciate it if I could easily tell the people's workload for a given sprint. Workload view is a great tool for this, but to make this work, I would need to set the start date and due date for every task. When tasks move across multiple sprints or spill over (and the dates might change), I have to ensure that those dates align with the sprint(s). It would help me if I could set the workload view to use the sprint dates instead of the tasks' dates.

We have X amount of resources with X number of hours which we need to see by day/week/month. Ability to see the capacity available for each resource to reassign time and schedule work. In this view we need to be able to quickly view availability and exceeded capacity. We would like to see a screen (view) in ClickUp like Calendar. Where you have resources (on the left side and hours/days/weeks/months on the top side. You can then drag and drop scheduled / unscheduled tasks on a resource.

We would like to assign people with a fixed percentage of their capacity to a task/project/project phase. E.g. assign Florian with 50% of his capacity (50% * 40h per week =20h per week). Assigning someone with a fixed amount of hours per week (e.g. 20 h per week) would also work. Our intention is to do high level resource portfolio/management. Assign people to projects, check if there is capacity for new projects,... In our use case projects/tasks that take longer than planned will continue to consume the same amount of resources for their duration. Please check out the example in the first screenshot. Microsoft Project. The percentage of the capacity of the assignee is highlighted in yellow.

Overview: Our organization frequently encounters scenarios where employees have part-time schedules, for instance, being available only three days a week (e.g., Monday, Wednesday, and Friday). Currently, when scheduling tasks that span multiple days (e.g., a task requiring five days to complete), our system does not account for individual employee availability. This often leads to scheduling inaccuracies and the need for manual adjustments. Problem: When a task is scheduled from Monday to Friday, assuming a continuous work effort is required, the system does not recognize that an employee only works three out of those five days. Consequently, it inaccurately reflects that the task will be completed within a single workweek. Proposed Solution: We request the development of a feature that intelligently schedules tasks based on the specific days an employee is available. For example, if a task requires five working days to complete and is assigned to an employee who works only on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, the system should automatically extend the task deadline to the following Wednesday. This adjustment accounts for the unavailability on Tuesday and Thursday of the first week and the subsequent Monday and Wednesday of the next week. Expected Benefits: Accuracy in Task Deadlines: Ensures task completion estimates accurately reflect employee availability, preventing unrealistic expectations. Efficiency in Workload Management: Automates the adjustment of task schedules, reducing the need for manual rescheduling and oversight. Improved Planning: Enables more effective long-term planning by providing a realistic view of task completion timelines. We believe this feature will significantly enhance our project management capabilities by aligning task scheduling with real-world employee availability, thus improving overall efficiency and productivity.

In the task list in workload view, priority and time estimation should be visible. Currently it is extremely difficult to plan a workload, not being able to see priorities and estimated time needed to complete a task.

When planning projects requiring multiple steps, we create an overall parent task and then build the subtasks from there. The time required for each subtask is entered and displays as a rolled up time required on the day within the parent task. However, when reviewing the Workload view, this time rollout up is no included within the overall day's time allocation which causes over-scheduling and project delays. If I change the time allocation on to the main parent task, but then subtasks have to be rescheduled, this causes inefficiencies by manually calculating the adjusted overall time required. Can the workload view please be changed to include the total parent task time taken from subtasks.
