RE: how to balance resources

Hi Bob,

Thank you for your question.

There are many methods to resolve overallocation of resources.

1. Use the Levelling process.
2. Splitting taks.
3. Increasing resources.
4. Decreasing the number of resources assigned.
5. Creating a levelling delay.

I hope this answers your question.

Regards

Simon
