By clicking on 'Project' on the left hand menu, then 'People' in the sub-menu, you can access detail on users at project level. Here you can specifically assign people (coders) to your project and assign those users work/coding to be done.



The options available in this section are described below.


TabDescription
PeopleLists project users and their permissions at administrator, group and project level.
Permissions can be edited at a project level (e.g. Supervisor, Codeframe editor, etc). Existing users can be added to the project group here.
Coding AllocationsEach coder is listed here, with their allocated coding tasks, waves, language and quota.  Quota type and amount can be edited here.  See section below for specific details of coding allocation screen.
Add Allocation (top right)Coding allocations (with ability to edit all above fields) can be added here.  


Choosing 'Coding allocations' will enable you to allocate coding to (external) coders within the following parameters:


ItemDescription
CoderThe user that the allocation will apply to
TaskThe task(s) to include in the allocation rule.  Select either a single task or all tasks.
WaveThe wave(s) to include in the allocation rule.  Select a single wave or all waves.
LanguageThe languages to include in the allocation rule.  Select a single or all languages.
Quota TypeThis setting can take the following values: 
  • All Workloads - allocate all available workloads to the specified coder for the selected Task(s), Wave(s) and Language(s)
  • Percentage - allocate a specified percentage of available workloads to the specified coder for the selected Task(s), Wave(s) and Language(s)
  • Absolute - allocate an absolute number of available workloads to the specified coder for the selected Task(s), Wave(s) and Language(s)
Quota

The quantity of workloads to include in the allocation rule.  This is either an absolute number or a percentage, depending on the Quota Type selected.

Include Coded WorkloadsWhether to include coded items in the allocation rule.  Usually coded workloads are not included, because you only want external coders to work on new/uncoded workloads. However, sometimes external coders are required to check or modify coded data, so you may want to include coded workloads.
