Managing profiles
Use profiles to create an outline of each resource type that is
relevant to the projects in your organization.
- Profiles
A profile is a set of resource characteristics or criteria that
you use to plan project activities. Profiles are defined in terms of skills,
competencies, and experience. The profile criteria are used to search for
resources that best match the project requirements. After you identify suitable
resources, profiles are replaced with the resources.
- Creating a system profile
Use a system profile to outline a resource description in terms
of skills, competencies, rate and years of experience. Create one system profile
for each resource type description for your organization requirements. For
example, to define resource descriptions for different programming resource
types, create one system profile for a Java programmer with 2 years of experience,
and then another system profile for a Java team leader with 5 years of experience.
