Resource view across multiple projects in WBS Gantt

[Gavin Pearson]

Does anyone know if it's possible to view resource usage across multiple projects at the same time?

I've currently got a number of Jira projects and can see the resource view per project, but could do with it to span all projects together rather than manually combining them.  I'd rather this than have to merge all projects together.

Hi @Gavin Pearson

Thank you for posting, this is Mizuho from WBS Gantt-Chart support team.

It is possible to view resource usage across multiple projects at the same time on WBS Gantt-Chart for Jira. Let me show you the steps below.

1. Create a Gantt from multiple projects which you would like to see resource view.
   Go to “Gantt” tab > “Create Gantt” > “Create from projects” > select projects > “Create”
   
   
   
2. Simply go to “View” > “Resource view” , it will show the sum of resource from those project you selected
   
   

I hope this covers your needs. Please don't hesitate to share with us if you have any comments or questions on the matter, we'll be happy to help!

You can also raise support ticket through WBS Gantt-Chart for Jira Support page to us when you have any questions or issues.

Hi @Gavin Pearson

It's Irina from Planyway:)

You can try out Planyway plug-in for Jira to check resource usage across multiple projects.

After connecting multiple projects to Planyway, in the Workload tab we'll show to you how much free time your teammates have or highlight the overallocated hours.

If you have any further questions, we can schedule a demo to showcase you the full capacity of the tool pared with your user case
