ES & LS CURVE

Hi Zex

There is a major difference in Early and Late Curves ,you could visualize once they are generated

In Tools-->Graphical reports ,there is an option for generation of early and late curves

I think you are looking for a banana curve...

1. Pull the data in a spread sheet for all the resources
2. One row for early start and the other for late start.
3. Convert the manhours into % completions and then prorate between these two to develop the banana curve.

Thanks.

Hi Iqbal

S curve is not banana curve .It doesn’t seems to be in s curve

Unfortunately the above example misses that the projected/forecast is composed also of Projected Early and Projected Late.

Shahul,your welcome, I did not know what a banana curve was, I did my web search and found about it. Learning never stops.

hye all frenzzz...

Thanks for the info...
I would like to gather more information how to make good s-curve for late start ;
Example manually adjust the latest dates constrain or zero float.

Please advise

You are posting on a P3 forum, as of today no software is capable of providing within the software the graphs as P3.

Within P3:
*You do not need to export to Excel for your S curves,
*with P3 you do not need to adjust late date constraints temporarily to go back again to initial status, *with P3 you can see projected early and late
*and if one baseline is not enough I believe you can display curves for the current job plus 2 baselines, but that is too much.

You got to be very happy, I sincerely do not understand why a P3 user would use Excel to create S curves when you can define as many combinations you want and then at a single click print all as a report group.

Believe me; I miss this old P3 functionality. Perhaps I got multiple vertical scrolling profiles tables and graphs, which I consider superior, but the basic S curves and the histograms reports of P3 have no parallel.
