If there is a recalculation of the PMI Prediction due to season generation, new file import, or manual calculation, it takes time for the ML algorithms to fully update.

Understanding Full-Time Equivalents (FTEs) in PMI Scheduling

In PMI, FTEs can be displayed in the scheduling module instead of hours, providing a more intuitive understanding of staffing levels.
