This week’s workload
8—12 SepWhat stays connected.
The details behind the workflow, including what is available and what is still planned.
THE CONNECTION
A new assignment should fit the time a person actually has. Review existing responsibilities, attendance and planned leave before changing the schedule. Managers can discuss priorities with the team while access rules keep sensitive personal and financial information with the appropriate roles.

People connected to delivery
Know who owns each task and how the next deadline fits their existing workload.
Availability in the same picture
Account for attendance and leave when assigning new work.
The right information for each role
Employees can work with the information they need. Financial records remain restricted to authorized roles.
Also in the system
Employees, external collaborators, teams, attendance, leave, workload and workspace roles.
How capacity becomes part of planning
Before a date is promised, check who owns the work, what they already carry and when they are away.
Add people and roles
Invite employees and external collaborators to the workspace and give each a role that matches what they need to see.
Record attendance and leave
Attendance and leave sit next to assignments, so availability is part of planning rather than a separate calendar.
Check the workload
Before assigning new work, look at the person’s open tasks and upcoming deadlines.
Assign with context
Give the task to someone who has time. The owner sees the brief and the date; the manager sees how the change affects the rest of the week.

What it replaces
Availability often lives in a shared calendar, leave in an HR form and assignments in a task tool. A manager has to combine all three before making a promise. PLYNTUM shows them together and keeps sensitive details with the right roles.
