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.
