Resource and Percentage

C

CQ

In Project 2003, I assign one resource per task. Why do some of those
resources show up with a percentage after their name? As an example: "John
Smith[43%]"
Where did that 43% come from?

CQ:

For example: If you setup a task as 6 hours work, and you assign a resource
to it whose calendar shows an availability for that resource to work 8 hours
in one day, the software will calculate that assignment as 75% units. This
is very basic Project behavior. Before you can use the tool effectively, you
****must**** understand how Project deals with Work, Duration and Units. You
pick two, the software calculates the third.
