The Asana plans that include workload management are Advanced plans (Portfolio Workload), Enterprise, and Enterprise Plus plans.
Some tasks require more effort than others. Depending on what’s most accurate for your team, you can choose to measure workload by task count, hours, or points. Or, create a new field with another value.
The Workload view shows how busy each team member is across projects, with capacity bars and task details.
To rebalance team workload, you can drag and drop tasks to reassign or reschedule them from the Workload tab.
You can adjust workload using hours or points by assigning effort values like hours or custom points to tasks to calculate workload.
You can filter workload by person or project. You can filter the Workload view to show specific team members or projects only.
You can plan with workload across date ranges from days and weeks to months or quarters using Workload.
There is a chart for workload trends over time. Workload includes a real‑time timeline chart that visualizes future team capacity.
When someone is over capacity, their bar turns red, highlighting overload.
Subtasks do not show in Workload by default; you must convert them to tasks or use parent tasks.
To add tasks to Workload view, add projects to a portfolio, then open the portfolio's Workload tab to include tasks in capacity planning.
