If you realize that you want to assign some tasks to a person not included in the Assign some people list, you can add that person and assign tasks in the same step. You can also add non-personnel resources, such as such as equipment (a CAD system or back hoe), facilities (a classroom or hotel), services (lab work or insurance), or materials (lumber or office supplies).

To add a new person or resource:

1. Select one or more phases or tasks in the For each phase or tasks list (on the left).        
2. Click <New Person> in the Assign some people list, and then type a name for the new person or resource.

This adds the new person or resource to the list and assigns the selected tasks to them.
