Abstract
A system is provided that visualizes task assignments. The system displays a project plan timeline within a user interface. The system further displays a first resource indicator and a second resource indicator within the project plan timeline. The system further displays a task indicator within the first resource indicator. The system further defines a side-area region of the task indicator, where the defining the side-area region designates the task as a multi-resource enabled task. The system further assigns the task to the second resource in response to a drag of the side-area region of the task indicator and a drop within the second resource indicator, where the task is assigned to both the first resource and the second resource. The system further displays a first task part indicator and a second task part indicator within the project plan timeline in place of the display of the task indicator. The first task part indicator is displayed within the first resource indicator and the second task part indicator is displayed within the second resource indicator.
