To assign resources to a task, you need to create a resource pool in OpenProj. This can be done by going to the “Resource” tab and clicking on “Create Resource Pool”. You can then add resources to the project by selecting them from the resource pool.

Is there a manual or tutorial in English? I have downloaded a very comprehensive PDF manual in Spanish, but cannot find one in English. Can you help me?

L
Answer by Leonard Moore

Yes. It seems that there is an unofficial User Manual that is written in English language for the OpenProj tool. However, this is not free and can only be purchased from the official website.


If you don't want to pay for the manual, you can use the Google Translate service to convert the Spanish manual to English. On the page mentioned, click on Translate a document button in order to upload and translate your PDF file.
