In short

How do I export my Meisterplan capacity plan to a spreadsheet?

Every Monday, WebRun opens Meisterplan and reads each project's planned resource allocation against available capacity by role, flagging anything over capacity. It checks Gmail for a matching budget approval on flagged projects, then exports one row per project, with allocation, capacity, and approval status, to Google Sheets for the PMO to review.

  • Over capacity projects are flagged every Monday instead of at quarter end
  • Budget approval status is checked automatically against flagged projects
  • One clean sheet replaces manually re typing the portfolio view

Questions, answered

Does it change any allocations in Meisterplan?

No. It only reads planned allocation and capacity by role and reports what it finds. Rebalancing is left to you.

Does it send any emails?

No. It only searches Gmail for existing budget approval emails. It never sends, replies, or drafts anything.

What counts as over capacity?

A project whose planned resource allocation for a role exceeds that role's available capacity in the current portfolio.
