Add closures, leave, trips and installs
Tell the capacity plan when the studio is closed, when people are on leave, and when they are away on site.
Time away changes how much work fits in a week. Add it here so the plan is right.
Before you start
- Admins and managers can add these. Go to Settings > Capacity and click Calendar.
Add a closure or leave
- Under Closures and leave, go to Add a closure or leave.
- Choose From and To.
- Choose who: Whole studio, or one person.
- Choose Full days or Half days.
- Optionally add a Label, such as "Christmas".
- Click Add.
Add a trip, install or survey
- Under Trips, installs and surveys, go to Add a trip, install or survey.
- Choose the Project, then Site trip, Installation or Survey.
- Choose From and To, and the days a week. Leave the days empty for the whole week.
- Choose who goes. If you choose nobody, it is the project's design lead.
- Click Add.
What happens next
- The plan recalculates. A closed week carries no load and shows as Closed. A person on leave all week shows as Away.
- A trip takes the place of that person's other work on the same project that week. Weekly reviews carry on.
- Everything you add appears under Out of the studio on the Capacity page.
Good to know
- To remove a row, click its remove button. A message offers Undo for a moment.
- A project's installation date already counts as an install week. You do not need to add it again.
- A closure does not move any stage dates.
