Resource allocation and timeline dates
When making a resource allocation on a plan with dates associated to the timeline (iteration) - if I leave blank the resource allocation start and end date (only input a percentage) does the resource allocation calculation assume the resource is required within the timeline dates? or does it default to any time frame (infinite)?

The latter ... i.e. the dates on the timeline have no affect on the resource allocation.

Don't know the "answer", but I have seen that setting specific dates on contributor work assignments can lead to inconsistent presentation of progress in plans views. I think leaving as percentage ought to be sufficient for most cases.
