The Manpower Planning Overview is your control center for tracking hiring progress against your plans — planned vs. actual headcount across departments and projects. Available to members with manpower access.
Before you start
Where to find it: Manpower Planning → Overview
The summary metrics
Filter by Year and Department, then read the summary cards:
Planned headcount — the budgeted positions in the plan.
Current headcount — people currently in role.
Need to hire — planned minus current.
In hiring — requisitions raised against the plan.
Projects — the number of project plans.
Target achieved — the share of planned headcount filled (e.g. "22 of 60 hired").
Annual headcount
The Annual headcount section shows your official yearly plan with Open [year] plan, a Planned vs current chart month by month, a Headcount by department donut, and a Hiring gap by department breakdown. Project plans are shown separately and never added to the annual headcount.
💡 Click Open [year] plan (or a plan's row) to drill into its department- and job-level detail.
Managing a plan
From a plan's actions (⋮) you can Update headcount, Edit, Export, or Delete it — see Update, Edit or Delete an Existing Manpower Plan.
Frequently asked questions
Why are projects shown separately from annual headcount?
Annual headcount is your official workforce plan; projects are project-specific demand. Recruitera keeps them in separate sections and never sums a project's roles into the annual headcount.
