Creating a Resource Table

  1. Open the PRM workbench; click Start > Infrastructure > Project Resource Management.

    The Project Resource Management Editor appears. The left frame displays a list of all the projects with bound resource sets. The right frame displays the resource sets for various applications.



  2. In the left frame, select a project node.

    In the right frame:

    This icon... Indicates that...
    No table is bound to the selected project
    A table is bound to the selected project

  3. In the right frame, expand the resource set which contains the resource table you want to work with.

    The resource tables are listed under the resource set.

  4. Drag the resource table to the left frame and drop it on the project node.

    The resource table is now bound to the project.



    Note: When you select a bound resource table, the projects to which it is bound are highlighted in the left tree.

    Important: If the project already contains a resource table with the same resource set Id as the dropped resource table, the binding is not done.

  5. Optional: To unbind a resource table, right-click the resource table node in the left tree view and select Unbind the resource.
