Can anybody please tell me how to get P3e/c to show a graph with the bugeted quantity as units. I.e lets say I have a designer working on a two day activity all I want P3e/c to show is 1 1 i.e I need to show no. of units per day or week or month etc.. for a particular resource.
The present graph seems to show days hours etc I just need whole numbers so that I can say here is a resource graph shwoing that we need 1 designer on the first 2 days and then say 4 designers on the next day etc...
If I cant show it on the graphs how do I extract this data????
Thanks for any assitance given.
PS Primavera support do not have an answer....

    Simple

    Firstly you select Resource Usage Profile in the activities View

    Secondly you format Resource Usage Profile Option (Right Click in the Graph Area)

    Select unit, Tick on Budgeted By Date

    Go to the Grahp TAB and tick Calculate Average
    And change the divided total by to (0.01) and change the unit of Measure to (%)

    Change Time scale to Day month or Week

    That way you will resolve the problem not able to display the exact % of time each of your resource.

    The reason that your original graph have 1 1 is because the rounding problem by effectively convert the usage to % it become more clear in the Usage %

    This is a further question on this topic.

    The profile thus generaged are always from the current programme. I want to generate a profile which shows both baseline and current information. Is there a way to do it?

    Bijaya,
    You can’t do it with the WYSIWYG. Try Resource/Cost Graphics. Go to Tools, Graphics Reports, Resource and Cost. In the content section you can select from Current schedule, Target 1 or Target 2.
    Good Luck

    Steve,

    The spreadsheet field option gives a choice among "Remaining Units", "Actual Units" and "Budgeted Units" only. it does not give option of baseline unit. Can you explain me how to add baseline units as an additional option?

    Paul,

    It may be different version of programme (I am using P3e/c ver 4.1) but I don’t see "Graphical Report" in pull down menu.

    Bijaya,

    Take a look at the Activity Usage Profile (View / Show on Bottom Menu) . This will allow you to display current vs baseline.

    Regards,
    Bill

    Bijaya,
    My apologies. Being only a humble user of P3 Ver 3.1 I forgot I was in a P3e thread. Actually I have my upgrade to P3e but due to current project pressures have not loaded it yet. I guess you will be getting queries from me once I start delving into its workings in the near future.
