What is the Resource Substitution Wizard?
The Resource Substitution Wizard is used to perform resource workload analysis and then make
decisions about which resources can be used to perform certain scheduled tasks. The enterprise
custom field attributes are used by this wizard to make resource matching decisions during the
workload analysis phase. It attempts to substitute resources having less workload for overloaded
resources within the constraints of enterprise custom field attribute settings.
