It is possible to assign tasks both to team members and to virtual resources in GanttPRO Gantt chart editor.
You can do it:
- From the Assigned field in Standard fields
- From the Add assignee box in Task settings
- From the Assigned in My tasks tab
- From the Workload tabs
Note that if no team members or virtual resources have been added to a project, you will be the only project participant and will only be able to assign tasks to yourself.
So, before assigning tasks, you have to add users and add virtual resources, if necessary.
Standard fields
If you want to assign tasks from Standard fields, click on the Assigned field 1 of the corresponding task. After that, you will see the drop-down list with team members invited to the project and virtual resources that have been added to it.
Check all the necessary boxes 2 and click on OK 3.
You can select as many resources as you need. If it is necessary to bring in other people apart from those in the drop-down list, click on +Add more people 4. This will redirect you to the People tab where you can invite other members to the project or add virtual resources.
Task settings
Click on Add assignee or Assignees and follow the same steps to assign tasks from the task settings.
My tasks tab
It is also possible to assign tasks to people and virtual resources in the My tasks 1 tab on the left sidebar by clicking on the Assigned 2 column for the corresponding task.
Workload tabs
To assign a task in any of the Workload tabs, drag the task bar 1 and drop it 2 to the required person or resource.
To reassign a task, uncheck the box with the team member or resource or drag & drop the task bar to another resource if you work in Workload tabs.
