Split Resources

The JavaScript Scheduler component supports split resources: A resource can be split into subresources which are displayed inline. This is different from the tree hierarchy where each parent is displayed as a special row.

Notes:

• Split resources can be combined with the resource tree. The leaf nodes of the tree hierarchy can have subresources.

• It works best with row header columns defined. You can specify the data source for each column (use split: true to use split resource data).

• When no row headers are defined, the Scheduler grid will display the subresources but the row header will only show the main row.

• You can show the subresource data in multiple row header columns.

• Row moving is supported for the main row.

• Crosshair is supported, it will highlight the main row and the current subresource in the header.

Limitations:

• Only one level is allowed (subresources can't be split).

• If a resource has children, the subresources are ignored.

Available since version 2022.2.5302.

Example

dp.rowHeaderColumns = [
    {name: "Location", display: "name"},
    {name: "Section", display: "name", split: true},
    {name: "Capacity", display: "capacity", split: true},
];

dp.resources = [
    {name: "Country 1", id: "C1", expanded: true, children: [
            {name: "Location 1", id: "L1", split: [
                    {name: "Section A", id: "L1.A", capacity: 40},
                    {name: "Section B", id: "L1.B", capacity: 40},
                    {name: "Section C", id: "L1.C", capacity: 30},
                ]},
            {name: "Location 2", id: "L2", split: [
                    {name: "Section A", id: "L2.A", capacity: 10},

                    {name: "Section C", id: "L5.C", capacity: 15},
                ]},
            {name: "Location 6", id: "L3", split: [
                    {name: "Section A", id: "L6.A", capacity: 10},

The JavaScript Scheduler: Using Split Resources to Manage Task Priorities tutorial shows how to configure the Scheduler to display a dedicated sub-row for each priority level. This allows you to group tasks with the same priority and display them at the same position within a row.
