Description

A work area is an organisational term to which workplaces, employees, warehouses and properties (buildings, premises, etc.) can be assigned as resources. Workspaces are used for rough resource planning, i.e. when you do not want to plan each individual resource for itself but several, exchangeable individual resources in one capacity.

The capacitive resource planning of work areas is used in particular in project networks.
