The display of the capacity planning chart as a stacked histogram. Categorized data can be grouped, or stacked, to assist with comparisons. Stacked histograms are useful when analyzing relative parts of a whole.
The capacity planning chart is displayed as an area chart. The chart data displays total allocated amount (units or cost) across time..
The capacity planning chart as a net availability chart. This chart displays the role's availability over time; how much the role is over or under-allocated. The Net Availability Chart is only available for units and is always grouped by role.
Enables you to view the actual source data used to generate the chart. Stacked By field Select a value for stacking or dividing the presentation of data in your capacity planning histogram, area chart, or spreadsheet. Choose one of the pre-defined general options or a project code.
Stack the chart by current projects vs. other projects to display the aggregate total at completion units or costs for the combination of selected roles across all projects, split into two values. One value represents the role allocation for the projects selected in the current project group (current projects); the other value represents the role allocation for all other projects in the database (other projects). Note: While the Current Projects vs. Other Projects value is always available in the Stacked by field, it will only provide meaningful data when you customize the page to display data for all projects in the database. When the chart is customized to display data only for selected projects in the current project group, you can still select this option; however, the chart will only display data for the current project group. (The Stacked by field is not available for the Net Availability Chart.) |
