Workload thresholds

Workload thresholds are the bands every workload colour is drawn from. They give your workspace one definition of "over-allocated".

Who can open and edit it: settings.manage (Owner and Admin by default). Without it the fields are read-only.

The four bands

Band	Range	Meaning
Under-used	Below Healthy	Capacity going spare. Shown, not flagged
Healthy	From the Healthy threshold	The target
Stretched	From the Stretched threshold	Allowed for a short run
Over-allocated	From the Over-allocated threshold	Flagged immediately on the project Workload tab and the Resource utilisation report

Only the starting point of Healthy, Stretched and Over-allocated is editable. Each upper end follows from the next boundary, so bands never overlap or leave gaps. Defaults are 60, 91 and 111 percent.

Change the thresholds

1. Open Settings → Delivery → Workload thresholds.
2. Edit Healthy from, Stretched from and Over-allocated from.
3. Select Save. Cancel discards edits.

Rules, shown inline:

• Whole numbers only.
• Healthy from must be greater than 0.
• Stretched from must be greater than Healthy from.
• Over-allocated from must be greater than Stretched from, and at most 300.

What reads the bands

The project Workload tab, resource allocation screens, the Resource utilisation report (including its over-allocated headline) and the Exceptions over-allocation rule all use these values. A save that changes nothing writes no audit entry.

INFO

A full working week, 100 percent, is a capacity fact and is not configurable.
