Resource planning and workload
Resource planning that shows everyone's week-by-week workload before a task is assigned.
Resource planning and workload is software that runs a company's projects, tasks, timelines and resource plans in one database. PORTWARE does this on the world's most widely used open-source business-management core, web-based and bilingual: Turkish e-invoicing and the uniform chart of accounts are built in, Word and Excel files are versioned on the record itself with cell-by-cell differences, and an AI assistant that reads the record runs on every screen. The data stays on your own server.

Each film walks one application's pages and shows what it gives you, in about two minutes.
Teams searching for Resource planning and workload often find their project tool cut off from the rest of the company: tasks in one place, quotations in another, hours in a spreadsheet. In PORTWARE, projects share one system with sales orders, purchasing, stock and invoices, so a project's cost and margin are read from records, not rebuilt.
The workload map shows how full each person is, week by week, before a task is assigned. A Scrum project gets sprints and a backlog; a Waterfall project runs on the timeline.

Frequently asked questions
Is there a Gantt chart?
Yes. A Gantt timeline with dependencies, milestones and a today line is installed.
Are Scrum and Kanban supported?
Yes. Each project picks its methodology: Scrum (sprints, backlog), Kanban, Waterfall or Stage-Gate.
Can project hours be invoiced?
Yes. Timesheets are linked to the sales order and become invoice lines.
What is PORTWARE's licence model — is there a per-user fee?
PORTWARE's core is the world's most widely used open-source (LGPL-3) business-management core; the modules PORTWARE writes are licensed LGPL-3. No closed-source per-user licence fee is required. The cost is in setup, tailoring, training and support services, quoted to your scope.
Where is our data kept, and whose server is it on?
The database runs wherever you want it: on your own server or on one PORTWARE manages. The schema is open and the whole dataset can be exported at any time. Backups are taken daily and kept on a separate server.
Does it integrate with the other programs we use?
Yes. PORTWARE exposes REST and XML-RPC APIs and talks to banks, e-invoice providers, e-commerce and shop-floor systems through them. For bulk data, Excel/CSV import and export is available on every screen.
How are training and support provided?
The system ships its own handbook, application guides and per-screen help. On top of that PORTWARE trains the team during go-live and provides upgrades and support afterwards.
