Why this helps
Resource allocation is hard to do accurately. You can't plan realistic work without knowing current headcount.
- Plan realistic work based on actual headcount
- Avoid overcommitting teams
- Make data-driven allocation decisions
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Make sure Appveyor is connected to Notis
- 2Tell Notis: 'When I create an issue about resource allocation, show me how many people are on our team'
- 3Select 'Issue Created' as the trigger
- 4Choose your planning or management channel
- 5Test by creating a resource planning issue and confirm team size appears
Questions about this workflow
Does this show who's available or just total headcount?
This shows total users. For availability data (vacation, allocations), create a detailed automation.
What if we have contractors or part-time people?
The roster includes everyone. Mention if you want contractors separated out and Notis will flag them.
Should I make this recurring?
Yes, create a weekly or monthly capacity review cron automation for regular roster updates.
