The Portfolios > Gantt Chart page displays timescale schedule information to the WBS level, along with units or costs data, in your choice of a histogram or spreadsheet view.
Note: The Gantt Chart page uses summarized data and so will be current as of the last date the summarizer was run for a project. You can view this date on the Executive Summary page, where it appears next to the group name and each project name.
View data in the Gantt chart
The Gantt chart displays summary and baseline bars that reflect data for all projects in the open project group.
To view detail bars for the group, click the plus sign next to the summary bar. You can display data down to the WBS level. The number of WBS levels you can view is determined by a project option setting, which is available on the Projects > Details > Settings page. See Choose a page in the Projects section for information on accessing this page.
Tips: You can also double-click on a bar to expand it
and display detail bars.
If a summary bar does not display when you have selected an EPS group, your
database has not been set up to create the required records. If you require
access to this data, see your P6 administrator for assistance.
When you expand a grouping, bars for the project and WBS levels reflect actual and remaining work. Each bar displays the project or WBS name at the left of the bar, and the percent complete value on the right.
To view start and finish dates, move the mouse pointer over a bar.
To horizontally scroll the current view, drag the timeline.
When displaying the Gantt/Histogram, to show or hide the legend, right-click within the chart area. Mark or clear the checkbox beside the legend you want to display.
Tip; If the Histogram or Gantt chart legends do not appear as specified, click and drag the horizontal split bar up or down to expand the chart.
View and customize the histogram or spreadsheet
Use the Display buttons to choose a format
- Spreadsheet - displays data in a timescaled row and column format.
- Histogram - displays as a timescaled bar chart.
To choose options, such as the timescale increment and the type of data you want to see, click Customize.
Tip: If the Financial Period timescale option is available, choose it to display the range of financial periods defined in the Project Management module.
Note: To display the Financial Period timescale, projects must be summarized by financial period and financial periods must be properly configured in the Project Management module. To display a calendar timescale (for example, Month/Week), projects must be summarized by calendar intervals. Summarizing project data by calendar and financial period intervals is controlled by administrative settings in the Project Management module; if either of these options are not selected, the corresponding timescale options are not available. Contact your administrator for more information.
