Formula or structure

(People × days × hours − team leave hours) × focus allocation / 100

Worked example

5 people × 10 days × 8 hours = 400 gross hours. After 40 leave hours, 70% focus allocation gives 252 planned hours.

How to use it

  1. Read the field descriptions and use one consistent set of units.
  2. Enter your own figures or select Load example to inspect a worked scenario.
  3. Review the result alongside the assumptions below.
  4. Copy or download the output, then assign the next action in your planning workflow.

Assumptions and interpretation

Capacity describes time, not a promise of completed story points. Avoid subtracting meetings twice if focus allocation already accounts for them.
