Utilization
See a detailed breakdown of your team's current utilization levels. This report will categorize each user into three distinct groups: optimally utilized, underutilized, and overutilized. The analysis will provide insights into how effectively your team members are spending their time on productive activities and identify potential areas for improvement in resource planning.
Underutilized and Overutilized Users
This list identifies both underutilized and overutilized employees based on the amount of time spent on productive tasks.
