Rather than removing one resource assignment from a task and then assigning another resource, you can replace one resource with another. You might want to replace a resource to resolve over allocations, reduce costs, increase efficiency, or increase quality.

1. Select the task to which you want to replace a resource.
2. Point to the „Entry-Info-Inspector” and select the resource you want to replace („Resource Assignments” pane).
3. Click on the „Replace-Resource” button below.
4. In the „Replace Resource” sheet make your settings.
5. Click on the „OK” button to replace the resource.

Note

• You can also replace resources by selecting the task to which you want to replace a resource and click on the „Replace-Resource” mini-toolbar icon.
• It's not to replace resources with different types. For example, you can't replace a work resource with a material resource or vice versa.
