User availability is calculated based on their working hours and the amount of work assigned to them. The user calendar is a view that is available for each user of your organization. The user calendar allows you to set a user’s individual working hours, create vacation events, and view an individual’s planned and actual work.

Workload view is a ‘system view’ available in the Tasks and Tickets applications. The workload view is a resource availability tool to help you visualize the work each team member is assigned to during a selected time period.
