Define Skills for Activity Type

Explanation

Perform this activity to add skill requirements to an Activity Type. It is possible to add Skill Levels when you define a skill requirement.

It is possible to decide which Demand Types e.g. Person, Tool/Equipment and Crew the skill should apply to. All Demand Types are by default set to Yes. When the Activity Type is associated with a Work Task, all existing resource demands matching the enabled types will inherit the skill requirements from the Activity Type. If the Activity Type changes or is removed, the skills will not be removed.

The attribute Share with Corequisite is used in scheduling to control whether all resources performing a group of tasks (all starting at the same time) must have the required skills, or if it's enough for just one resource in the group to have them. If set to Yes, the value will be inherited to the Work Task to control scheduling behavior.

You can use skill templates to add multiple skills. Each skill record needs to be unique.
