The role browser shows your demand for labor. It is typically used by schedulers to view open requests, booked requests, and role allocations. It provides a handy visualization that displays requested hours for a role and what the role is currently working on. Typically as a scheduler you might come here to answer the following kinds of questions:

• What roles have open requests?
• How many technical consultants are needed in the coming weeks?
• Which roles need a resource assigned?
• This resource has free time, which roles could I assign them to?

This tab is often used in conjunction with the Resource Browser. The two show your labor demand vs. supply. With this information on hand, you match the two to fulfill your scheduling needs. More is covered in our how-to article, Role and Resource Browser Workflow MP.

If you are unfamiliar with roles, please see the Roles MP help page.
