Resource Planner Filtering Update for Pools

When using the Pools filter on the Resource Planner, and viewing by project, the AVL hours seems to be capturing much more than just the pool that is being filtered.


For example, we have a custom filter set up to show only our Creative department (pool). I would expect the resulting AVL hours value to display the total available hours for the Creative department pool (closer to 1,500 hours when viewing the month of October - 9 users, 21 days, 8hrs/day). However, it's showing 22,030.78 hrs.


It turns out that using the Pools filter in this manner filters the number of projects that contain the Resource Pool: Creative Dept., rather than looking at the availability for Creative Dept. users within those Projects. The AVL hours that currently display are the total availability for all users assigned to any Resource Pool attached to that Project.


It would be ideal that if a specific pool (or pools) is applied to the Pools filter, that the resulting AVL hours column value displays only the available hours for that given pool (pools), and not all pools.
