You can view a graph of a selected resource's availability (availability: Indicates when and how much of a resource's time can be scheduled for assigned work. Availability is determined by project and resource calendars, resource start and finish dates, or the level at which the resource is available for work.) to find overallocated (overallocation: The result of assigning more tasks to a resource than the resource can accomplish in the working time available.) or underallocated (underallocation: Assigning a resource to work fewer hours than the resource has available.) resources within a project or across projects.

1. On the View menu, click Gantt Chart.
2. If you want to review assignment work information on a particular task, select that task.
