Project Planning – Analysis of workload

With Direct Planning Projet, you have many tools to analyze the workload: load histogram, export to Excel or Open Office and descriptive files of workload.

Workload histogram

For a selection of resources, it just takes one click to create a workload histogram. This histogram highlights:

  • the actual load
  • the load that is not scheduled
  • the availability
  • the capacity

The chart obtained can be directly copied and pasted in an email, printed or saved in an image file  (PNG, JPG, BMP, etc).

Exporting workload to Microsoft Excel or Open Office

The rough data that make up the workload histogram can be transferred as an array to Microsoft Excel or Open Office.

Automatically creating descriptive files of workload

Upon each schedule backup, it is possible to automatically create two data files describing the production workload:

  • the daily workload, detailed by resource and resource grouping
  • the weekly workload, detailed by resource and resource grouping

These data files are CSV files (comma-separated text files).
