Project Assignments Breakdown Fields

The PSA Project Assignments Breakdown is usually displayed on the Resources tab of a project record, although an administrator can configure it to be displayed elsewhere on the page.

The component contains the Project Assignments Breakdown grid. This grid provides a breakdown of the project based on assignment hours, grouped by role. The permissions required to use this component are listed in Permissions for the Project Assignments Breakdown Lightning Component.

Grid

The columns in the Project Assignments Breakdown grid are:

Name Description
Assignment Name

The assignment's name, grouped under role. You can click an assignment to navigate to its record page.

If you hover over an assignment, the following assignment fields are displayed by default: Assignment Name, Resource, End Date.

Tip:

You can customize the hover details by editing the page in the Lightning App Builder, selecting the Project Assignments Breakdown component, then selecting a field set in the Hover Details Field Set for Assignments field in the Properties panel. The fields in the selected field set are displayed in addition to the default fields. For more information, see Project Assignments Breakdown Lightning Component Properties
