Let say we have an activity with 100 days duration and 100 labor units. By default it use Linear spread.
It mean, when you reach 5% of duration (5th day in this example) you have 5% of total unit (5 unit in this example). And it spread evenly to that period.
So resource spreadsheet will be like this:
Now if I change to 6 %.
It mean, when you reach 5% of duration (5th day in this example) you have 6% of total unit (6 unit in this example). And it spread evenly to that period.
So resource spreadsheet will be like this:
Similarly, when you reach 10% of duration (10th day in this example) you have 5% more of total unit (5 unit in this example). And it spread evenly to that period.
So resource spreadsheet will be like this:
And it follow that regulation until the end of curve.
Now you understand how the resource curve work.
Hopefully it will help you to distribute resource unit as your wish
