Resource planning views are configured in the Settings > Resource Planning > Resource Planning Views folder.

A resource planning view has the following features:

  • It is created for a specific class and then acts for tree entries of that class
  • It can represent a table view or a utilization graph
  • In the case of table views, the Resource Planning view saves the list settings

Any number of resource planning views can be defined per class. For each applicable view, a corresponding button is shown in the header of the detail view.

 A resource planning view has the following properties:

Characteristic description
designation Name of the resource planning. This designation appears as button text on the detail view and can be defined in different interface languages if required.
Active Controls whether this resource planning view is applied.
Type of view There are four types of views available:
  • Timetable
  • Pivot table
  • Capacity graph
  • Utilization graph
These views are described in detail in the Resource Planning article.
Classes Controls which classes this resource planning view applies to. Available are:
For individual objects / Show for lists Controls whether the view is available for individual objects or lists.
Condition

Here, a display condition can be specified via OCL expression, which can be used to control whether or when this resource planning view is displayed or not.

In the OCL editor, Eintrag shown. This is the up-to-date selected object in the tree.

If the object is used in the OCL, the administrator must write the code in such a way that it works for all combinations of class / single object / list. oclIsTypeOf the specific type tested and/or with: oclAsType cast.

The result of this expression must return a Yes/No (Boolean) value.

The resource view evaluates this expression. If the expression is empty or the result is true, then the view is shown.

For example, the condition is used to hide resource planning views for projects when scheduling at the phase level.

Expression OCL expression used to calculate the entries that form the basis of the view. Evaluated on the selected object in the tree.
list controller

Specifies the List Controller used to display the table (only for table views). Specifies a Python class in the form <Modul>.<Klasse>.

Clicking on the three dots next to the field opens the corresponding module code for viewing.

An overview of the available ready-made list controllers can be found in the article Vertec Python Features in the module vtcplanning.

Icon (disambiguation)

This Icon (Disambiguation) is shown on the button (or if several buttons are grouped next to the buttons) in the detail view. The default icons are:

  • Tables: 110
  • Pivot tables: 109
  • Capacity graphics: 111
  • Utilization graphs: 112
Group

With a group index, several buttons can be combined into a group. In the detail view, they appear next to each other with a presented icon.

Which number you dial does not play a role, buttons with the same number are simply grouped together.

Order

Here you can control the order in which the buttons are displayed on the detail view. They are sorted in ascending order.

We recommend choosing larger sort steps (e.g. steps of 10). This will allow you to insert buttons in between.
