Planner with Resource Calendars

Hi,

I have a team with differing working hours e.g. some are 8 and some 6 per day. Is there anyway I can setup this flexible resource availability for my resources under Planner?

I was hoping to use the "Resource calendars" option but have been advised this is not released yet. We are running this under Planner Premium.

Any advice is much appreciated! Thanks.

    Planner is not the tool for this sort of scheduling, MSoft pretend it is but it is only useful for small jobs by one or two people. You need a more professional tool such as Primavera a P6

    I have a similar problem / requirement. However my staff are working across multiple projects and I'd like to set hours based on their availability to that specific project/plan.

      Thanks Brian. I have passed this across to my IT colleagues as we have a rather locked-down installation it seems. I will post an update when I hear back from them!
