About this task
When you unassign a resource at the project level, the resource
is unassigned from the project as well as from the project's
task assignments. But when you unassign a resource at a work item
level, the resource is not unassigned at the project level. To unassign a resource from a work item or a project:
Procedure
- In the Resources view, ensure that the Resource and Profile
Assignment viewlet is open.
- From the WBS tree, select a project or work item. The resource that is assigned to the work item or project
is displayed in the Resource and Profile Assignment viewlet.
- In the Actions column, click the Unassign icon
.
- If the resource has entered time in the timesheet, you
are prompted to either Unassign only or to Unassign
and replace the resource with a profile.
- If you click Unassign and replace:
- select a profile from the Add profiles window and click Add.
- If you select Unassign only, the resource
is unassigned from the project or work item.
- Click Save.
