Resourcing Allocations
I am trying to find a way to accurately reflect the resource capacity of an individual when assign multiple concurrent tasks in a single day. I appears that if I assign for example 8 one hour tasks (effort = 1h) that the person shows up at 800% capacity for that day rather than being at 100%. How can I make this work? Do I also need to reduce allocation as well as hours? if so, what percent do I use for 1 hour? 4h = 50%, 2h = 25%, 1h = 25/2% or12.5%

Hi Phil,
You only need to reduce the % Allocated for resource managment. For your example of the 8, 1 hour tasks, your allocated amount would be the 12.5 but Smartsheet rounds up so it will show 13% on your sheet but only 100% in the resource view.
Hope this helps.

HAS() will only return true under three conditions.<\/p>
- The cell is a multicontact cell and contains a match for the contact<\/li>
- The cell is a multiselect dropdown and contains a match<\/li>
- The cell is not a multicontact or multiselect dropdown and contains ONLY and EXACTLY the text you are matching against. <\/li><\/ol>
I am assuming your row in question is a standard Text\/Number cell? If so, you will need to get somewhat creative with some CONTAINS() statements.<\/p>
This will narrow down your matches to only cells that contain a space both before and after TAC. If, however, TAC can appear as the first or last \"word\" in the cell, it would not match in that circumstance as there would only be a space on one side.<\/p>
=IF(CONTAINS(\" TAC \", [Column Name1]@row), 1, 0)<\/p>
<\/p>If TAC can appear as the first or last \"word\" in the cell, this will cover those possibilities as well.<\/p>
=IF(OR(CONTAINS(\" TAC \", [Column Name1]@row), LEFT([Column Name1]@row, 4) = \"TAC \", RIGHT([Column Name1]@row, 4) = \" TAC\"), 1, 0)<\/p>
<\/p>If it is possible that TAC will be the exact entry of the cell, you will need an additional statement to cover that, as there would not be spaces on either side. This will add that option.<\/p>
=IF(OR(CONTAINS(\" TAC \", [Column Name1]@row), LEFT([Column Name1]@row, 4) = \"TAC \", RIGHT([Column Name1]@row, 4) = \" TAC\", [Column Name1]@row = \"TAC\"), 1, 0)<\/p>
<\/p>If there are other situations you may have in your sheet, i.e., TAC inside parenthesis, or before or after punctuation, etc, you will additional statements to include those options as well.<\/p>"}]}},"status":{"statusID":3,"name":"Accepted","state":"closed","recordType":"discussion","recordSubType":"question"},"bookmarked":false,"unread":false,"category":{"categoryID":322,"name":"Formulas and Functions","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/categories\/formulas-and-functions","allowedDiscussionTypes":[]},"reactions":[{"tagID":3,"urlcode":"Promote","name":"Promote","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":5,"count":0},{"tagID":5,"urlcode":"Insightful","name":"Insightful","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0},{"tagID":11,"urlcode":"Up","name":"Vote Up","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0},{"tagID":13,"urlcode":"Awesome","name":"Awesome","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0}],"tags":[{"tagID":254,"urlcode":"Formulas","name":"Formulas"}]},{"discussionID":109146,"type":"question","name":"Identify Workflow from ID?","excerpt":"Good morning, got a random one.

Yeah. That does sound like it could take awhile. Haha. And if you knew the sheet I'd, you'd be able to just jump to it in SS instead of needing the api.<\/p>
