Currently, when we want a task to go to PSO but to be manually scheduled, we apply a skill of MANUAL SCHEDULE to the task. That way, PSO will not find a resource with the matching skill and the task will sit there until it is manually scheduled.

However, we want to use Schedule Assistance to manually schedule that task in PSO. We can deselect “Match Skills” and that ignores the Manual Schedule skill requirement, but we want to see suggestions for resources with the other required skills.

We tried using a value of 0 for the task, but for some reason it still schedules the task.

Is there some way to get PSO to not schedule the task, without having to use the MANUAL SCHEDULE skill trick?

 

Have you checked on the PSO side that the activity actually has a value of 0? If there is a resource cost, I’m surprised that PSO auto-schedules them as this allocation would have a negative margin..

Thanks, we will check that.

Tried this. Set the scheduling activity type’s value to 0…

...use that on the task…

...it will still be sent to PSO, but the activity will remain unallocated:
