Can some one guide me for Histogram

take for eg an activity which has
BQ -3000hrs
Duration-15days
there fore units per day will be 3000/15= 200hrs

If people work 10hrs per day then the # of people require will be 200/10=10

Now i want to create a histogram with time in x axis and # of manpower required in Y axis

I go to Tools-Graphic Reports- Resource and Cost Graphics-Histogram with Ordinal rates-content-

If I go there only Show data :Resource or Cost is only available

we know Resource which is BQ

I want Show data as Units per day where i can divide by 10 to get # of People

Can some one help

    Ranga,

    FIRST OF ALL, 200/10=20 and not 10. (Check ur post)

    In Tools -> Graphic Reports- Resource and Cost Graphics-Histogram with Ordinal rates, go to DATE TAB; There is option, TIMESCALE and Title each. Change it to Days and Week respectively.

    You will get in histogram as no. of people required per day. (i.e. units per day)

    Hope it is clear.

    Cheers,

    Rav

    Hi Ranga,

    As I understood from your post, you have BQ for all actvities.

    Load the BQ in the P#3.

    Now as the BQ is in Hours and you need the histogram in Man you need to Plot the Histogram with ordinal dates by dividing it by 10 for 10 hours working.

    I just did the trial run and it worked for my project, hope it helps you also.

    Regards,

    Ashraf

    The quickest way to display your resource loading is to use the layout screen.

    In addition, you need to know that Baseline(target project) need to loaded with the correct budget as well since the tablar report uses the target project budget as the budgeted quantity.

    Good Luck

    Alex
