Planning work with projects and allocations
Set up projects, allocate people to work, and see capacity at a glance.
Stride helps you plan who is working on what and whether you have the capacity for what's coming. The planning hub is the Workload & Timeline page.
Create a project
On Projects, choose Create Project. Give it a Project name and a unique Project code, a Start date, and at least one Department (required). Description, end date, owner and team members are optional and set by an admin. Tasks are added afterwards, from the project — not during creation.
Allocate people
On Workload & Timeline, choose New Allocation and allocate a person to a project for a date range, as an Allocation % of their capacity. Stride shows a Capacity Assessment before you save and warns if it would overbook. (Allocations and the capacity view are a Growth-tier feature.)
Read capacity
The Capacity Ledger shows each person's Allocated and Available hours and a status of Available, Full or Overloaded for the selected window.
Track time
On Time Tracking, people log actual hours on a weekly timesheet whose rows come from their allocations. Entries move Draft → Submitted → Approved.
