## Description

**As** a resource planner  
**I want to** reuse _Placeholder Users_ in resource management  
**so that** so that I can do proper statistics and link it with other places in the system

**Acceptance criteria**

*   Extend the _Placeholder User_ to include user filters so that we can use them instead of user filters on the Resource Allocation
    
*   Create placeholder users for every unique filter used in resource management before
    
*   Build a UI to quickly add placeholder users from the resource allocation modal form
    

**Technical notes**

*   ~~Placeholder Users have project membership, we need to figure out if we want to take that membership into account or if we need to split project membership and the placeholder user being visible in budgets and resource management regardless of that.~~ We added an extra endpoint. Placeholder users with a criteria/filter set up will always be visible in resource management
