ARS - Applium Resource Scheduling

With the Applium Resource Scheduling (ARS) suite of applications, you have a simple and ergonomic solution for managing the use of your resources and simplifying the planning stages of your business.
Developed by Applium, ARS is fully modular and perfectly integrated with SAP HR, PS or even PM (SAP ECC6 or SAP S/4HANA On Premise and Private Cloud). Based exclusively on the SAP Fiori interface, ARS facilitates the user experience with modern and intuitive ergonomics.

The application is thus directly available on the user's homepage:


Employee Management

The employee management application allows the hiring of employees in HR, their assignment to a team, and the addition and deletion of skills.

Resource planning

The resource planning application allows the identification of resources to be allocated to different business tasks, and vice versa.


The available resources are identified according to the compatibility criteria predefined in the design: expertise, training received, grades, teams, etc.


Assigning a task to a resource can be done by drag and drop.


A load/availability check is automatically performed, according to the principles defined in the design:

  • An overload indication may be displayed
  • An overload lock can prevent the planned overload resource from being allocated
  • The user can also be notified by an overload warning message with a proposal of possible actions:


The user can notify employees by email, with integration into Microsoft Outlook and Google Calendar.

Workload planning

The workload planning application allows users to analyse the workload of their teams, the planned requirement and the remaining work to be planned.


The graphical display allows a quick analysis of the load distribution to be performed:
