How do I check a worker's availability for the week?

Quick answer

Hover (or tap, on touch devices) a worker's card in the Resources panel to see a popup showing "X of 7 days this week", with each day of the week marked as free or not.

Overview

Before committing a worker to a project, it helps to know how much of the week they already have on their plate. The availability hover gives you that at a glance, without needing to open every card they're already assigned to. It's the fastest way to confirm someone is actually free before you drag them onto a day.

Before you begin

• Availability is visible to admins in the web portal.
• The Availability button also sits in the Resources panel alongside Worker Group — this article covers the quick hover check; see Setting or updating worker availability for managing availability itself.

Steps

1. Open the Resources panel and switch to the Workers tab.
2. Find the worker you want to check, using Search workers by name or ID if needed.
3. Hover over their card (or tap it, on mobile-sized screens) to bring up the availability popup.
4. Read the summary. The popup shows "X of 7 days this week" along with Monday through Sunday, each marked to show whether the worker is free that day.
5. Use it before assigning. Confirm the day you want is marked free before dragging the worker onto a card.

Use cases

• Pre-assignment check: confirm a worker is actually free on the day you're about to schedule them for.
• Finding coverage fast: scan a few worker cards to find someone open on a specific day when you need to fill a gap quickly.

Troubleshooting

The hover shows a worker as busy on a day I don't think they're scheduled. Their availability may reflect something set separately from scheduling cards, such as approved time off — see Scheduling around time off.

I can't get the popup to show on my device. On touch devices, tap the worker's card instead of hovering.
