Create Productivity Profiles

This article provides direction for adding a productivity profile to a new or existing role. Productivity profiles describe the time it would take for a person in a specific role to become fully productive. They can be ramp-based, meaning productivity will increase in increments over time. A default productivity profile indicates the expected productivity of a person in a specific role. This is useful in planning scenarios where a certain productivity level needs to be assumed.
