FAQs
Frequently asked questions and answers about ZEP.
How can I professionally plan my projects with individual planning hours?
ZEP allows you to define hours and services in advance for tailor-made project planning. You can choose between fixed or dynamic plan figures to manage your projects either bottom-up or top-down as required.
What is the difference between dynamic and fixed scheduling of hours in our projects?
When using fixed plan figures, top-down planning takes place, which allocates a fixed number of hours to processes or sub-operations. In contrast, dynamic plan figures lead to bottom-up planning, in that the sum of the planned figures determines the total expenditure for the project through processes, tickets or subtasks.
How do I use ZEP to evaluate the target/actual comparison of my time expenditure?
ZEP ermöglicht einen Soll/Ist-Vergleich der Zeitaufwände auf Knopfdruck pro Projekt und sogar einen projektübergreifenden Vergleich für den Gesamtüberblick. Zudem profitieren Sie von detaillierten Aufwandsplanungsfunktionen, um den Projektfortschritt genau zu überwachen.
What features are available to project managers for project controlling?
In ZEP, project managers can specify the planned expenditure in hours for projects and tasks. Overbooking stops for billable hours, display of planned expenditure in the project plan, and notifications when a certain quota is reached are just a few of the features that enable effective project controlling.
How does my team keep track of the plan figures in the project plan?
ZEP offers a variety of options for displaying plan figures to ensure that your entire team keeps an eye on the project plan. This ensures transparent and efficient cooperation when implementing your projects.
