In this guide, we'll learn how to change the number of staffed hours for a teammate who is already included in a staffing plan. This process involves navigating to the Labor tab in your project, selecting the correct phase, and adjusting the hours or percentage of time assigned to the staff member. We will also cover how to publish these changes so they are visible to everyone involved in the project.
