Timeline Module
Who is busy, when and how much — along the time axis.
The Timeline shows tasks along the time axis across person and resource rows. It surfaces who is booked and who is free, letting you balance overload before it forms.
Track project and resource plans on a time axis.
Overview
What it does
It matters not only when tasks finish but who carries them. The Timeline lays tasks along the time axis in resource rows, showing clearly how many jobs one person is stretched across at once.
Scope
Sub-categories of Timeline
Each sub-category manages a part of this process — all on the same data.
Project Management
Track project tasks with start-end and milestones along the time axis.
Scheduling & Capacity
Assign resources along the time axis, see workload and balance overload.
Roles
Who is it for?
The same data, a different view for each role.
Project Manager
See resource utilization and idle time; distribute work evenly across the team.
Resource Planner
Spot overloaded people early and shift tasks to a suitable time slot.
Department Manager
Monitor team capacity by period and place new work in a realistic timeframe.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I see overloaded resources?
The Timeline plots each resource’s workload over a given period; resources exceeding capacity are visibly flagged.
Do I balance resources manually?
You can reassign tasks by drag-and-drop and balance workload manually; Sonia also suggests a suitable resource and time slot.
What is the difference from the Gantt chart?
The Timeline shows resource workload and capacity along the time axis; the Gantt focuses on task dependencies and the critical path. Both use the same project data.
