Is it explicitly your job to teach the client how to use the tool? If not, pass the buck to someone else. If it is your job, try to involve someone else in case they have a better way to explain.

In both cases, ask your manager if you should prioritize helping the client or do your work instead.

Not my job to explain how the tool works.
But ,why don’t they understand we have expertise on the tool and know better. manager is on holiday. and project lead or manager leading the engagement is different vendor and explaining her is like banging your head on wall. Have already escalated to senior manager few days back

Make it an email thread an limit responses to once an hour/1/2 hour. That way you can supply sufficient answer and information for somebody technically adept but not wasting all the time breaking down every detail.

I am the only developer in my team and my manager has assigned me a project in which I need to create a tool from scratch although that is currently running in production build by third party and we don't have access to that code.

I am on notice period and I am 100% sure that project won't be completed before my LWD.

What should I do, I asked him to put some extra team members but he didn't agree, seems like he will add extra team members 2-3 weeks before my LWD.

I’m confused because we’re doing the work either way and “spending” in labor/resources.
