Table view
Table View is an alternative way to view and manage your Resources' time. It displays the same information as the Plans page, but it shows you the time booked in hours instead of bars for each Booking. Use Table View to add hours to a Job, or to create a new Job and add hours to it.
Much of the functionality in Table View is the same as on the Plans page, including keyboard shortcuts. This topic only covers functionality that differs from or is not available on the Plans page.
Control access to Table View in the general tab of Security Profiles. Customise the name of the page or disable access to it in Page Names.
The Table View Grid
The grid in Table View displays table cells for each week. The available date ranges are 1, 2, 3 and 4 months.
Note
- Table View does not display unconfirmed bookings.
- You cannot create Roles in Table View.
- Only Job and Resource filters are available in Table View.
- When you edit a booking in Table View, the booking may split or change on the Plans page to match the value, and recurring bookings may disappear from a series.
In both Resource view and Job view, Retain displays a Total Planned row and a Totals column for each Resource and Job. These rows and columns display the automatically calculated total hours in a read-only format.
