Summary

In this chapter we have gone through the tools available to help you manage resources across all of your projects. You have seen how to reserve resources through resource planning, how to assign resource through the assignment screens, and how to view the allocation and use of resources in the analysis screens. With these tools in your arsenal you can master resource management in a number of ways.

In the appendices you will learn how Primavera P6 can be integrated with ERP systems. One commonly desired touch point between P6 and ERP is to tie together employee resources in ERP and labor resources in P6. Once this is done, the powerful resource management tools of P6 can feed right back into the ERP system, and across the enterprise.
