Create a new Manpower Request from the Gantt Page
To create a new manpower request while on the Gantt Page, click on the three dots on the right-hand side of the project name line.
Select New Request from the pop-up options. From this modal, you can create and save your new request.
The Request Modal contains the following sections:

- Comments

This is the Request configuration - where you can select the Project, Job Title, Working Days, Quantity of People Needed, Tags, Work Hours, and Assignment Request Duration.
Scope of Work (Optional)
Whatever is typed here will automatically get populated in the Assignment Alert that gets created upon fulfillment of the Request.
Example: Installing overhead conduits ranging from 3/4" to 2" EMT. Bring tools for this activity.
Assignment Instruction (Optional)
Whatever is typed here will automatically get populated in the Assignment Alert that gets created upon fulfillment of the Request.
Example: Park on east side of building and call Tom when you arrive onsite. His number is 913-123-5431.

Once the required fields are populated, a blue Save link will appear in the top right-hand corner of the modal.
