You can use the Resources section of the Administration
view to create and manage resource data. Resource data includes the
characteristics by which to categorize your team members and profiles.
Creating a skill
You define skills that you can later select when you create
a profile. When you search for resources and profiles, you can select
skills as attributes. Skills refer to the knowledge of a particular
technology or domain, for example, Java™, Jazz™ or Linux®. You can also specify the proficiency
level as acquired, applied, or mastered.
Creating a competency
A competency is a level in the organizational structure
or hierarchy that is usually defined in terms of a role or position;
for example, manager or developer. When you create a competency, you
can indicate if the proficiency level is acquired, applied or mastered.
Creating a proficiency
Proficiency is the level of a resource's ability to
apply knowledge to situations. You create a proficiency and later
associate it with a skill or competency to denote the capability of
a resource.
Creating a pool type
A pool type can consist of one or more pools, which resources
can be assigned to. When you search for resources, you can select
a resource pool as an attribute and search for resources that are
available in that pool.
