# Planning

The Gantt chart is a tool used in scheduling and project management and allowing to visualize in time the various tasks composing a project.

It is a representation of a connected graph, evaluated and oriented, which makes it possible to graphically represent the progress of the project

## Gantt chart

This screen allows to define projects planning and follow progress.

The Gantt Chart is composed of five areas:

Gantt (Planning)

Interface areas:

The checkbox

Show Critical path

The critical path allows you to determine the total duration of your project. This is the longest sequence of tasks that must be completed for the project to be completed on time.

The Critical Chain, meanwhile, is a technique for planning and monitoring deadlines but has the same principle: take into account the constraints to determine the duration of the project and the critical tasks that may impact this duration. One of these constraints is the taking into account of resource or skill limitations in addition to the dependencies between the tasks and the implementation of buffers, i.e. time reserves, in the critical chain and the secondary chains.

ProjeQtOr offers you a critical chain rather than a critical path, but for better understanding, the term Critical path has been retained.

- click on the critical path check box to calculate and display the red path in the Gantt schedule.

The red net represents the critical path of the project.

Note

The tasks of the project which are not crossed by the critical path are elements which will not affect the duration of the project and, even modified, will not automatically involve a modification of this duration for the entire project.

Activity planning calculation

Click on to start the activity planning calculation.

A popup window appears with the list of projects. The check boxes allow you to select one or more projects to recalculate.

Project selection popUp for project calculation

If you have selected one or more projects with Project Selector then the selected projects will be automatically checked.

Choose the date on which you want to recalculate the project. Whether in the past, today or in the future.

By checking the “Hide unselected projects” box, you will only have the projects selected in the project selector and they will be automatically checked.

> Automatic run plan

> Check the box to activate automatic calculation on each change.

> Warning

> Only works on the Gantt Planning view. If the modification of an element is carried out on the dedicated screen of the element, then it is necessary to click again on BUTTON to restart the computation

> Note

> All modifications about assignement (rate, name or numbers of resources, dates…) done are not displayed on the new planning screen until having, for this purpose, activited the planning calculation, either in an automatic run plan or not.

> On the contrary, the screen planning will not change even if modifications have been loaded yet.

> Automatic calculation

> Differential calculation = calculation of projects that require a recalculation.

> Complete calculation = calculation of all projects

> The calculations are programmed according to a frequency of CRON type (every minute, every hour, at a given hour every day, at a given time on a given week day, …)

> See: Global Parameters into the chapter Automatic planning Calculation

> Overuse

> Calculation window with the overuse option

> The overuse option allows you to allocate to all the resources and this, on the projects of your choice, maximum overbooking.

> This allows you to see the amount of work that is overused for the resources assigned to the task for each period of time.

> Warning

> This function is dangerous, it does not reflect reality.

> For this reason, by default, it is not activated, even for the administrator.

> See: Specific access in the Planning section access rights

> Manual Planning

Display from… to…

Change the start and / or end date to limit or extend the display of a Gantt Chart.

If the display is truncated because the project is too long, think to change the display scale.

> all the projet

> Check All the project for the Gantt chart to show all project tasks when possible.

> Saving dates

> Save your dates of display to retrieve them on every connection.

Planning validation

Allows you to replace the validated dates with the planned dates.

Store planned dates

With this approach, you validate in a way any possible delay on the activities of your project.

Two actions are available: Always or if empty.

> Always

> will overwrite existing values.

> If values are entered in the “validated” fields then, they will all be replaced by the planned dates (calculated by the software)

> If empty

> will not overwrite existing values.

> If the “validated” fields are not completed, then these dates will be replaced by the planned dates.

> If the “validated” fields are completed then they will be kept.

Save and show baseline

The baseline is a record of the planning state at a time T.

Save a baseline

You can create as many baselines as you want per day, but you can only save one baseline per day. Each new baseline must replace the previous one.

> Save baseline

> Saved a baseline with the button .

> Enter the project on which to create the baseline. The list of existing baselines, already registered, is available via this window. You can modify your baseline or delete it to save another one.

> Record baseline

> Show baseline

> You can display two baselines at the same time. The one above the current activity bars of your project. The other below.

> Each of them has a different color, pale blue for the top line and pale purple for the bottom line

> Display two baselines

> This option will be very useful for you to compare possible drifts and explain them.

Print and Export the Gantt chart

You can print directly on your printer or export in PDF format or in MS Project format

> Print planning

> Click on the button to print the Gantt chart in A4 and / or A3 format.

> The print quality, despite printing or exporting on a reduced scale, remains very qualitative and offers very little loss of detail in the diagram.

> Export planning to PDF

> Allows to export planning to PDF format. Export can be done horizontally (landscape) or vertically (portrait) in A4 and / or A3 format with great detail even with a zoom

> Export contains all details and links between tasks and also include a pagination.

> And the option Repeat Headers allow you to print or export your planning in multiple pages

> Export planning to PDF

> This feature will execute export on client side, in your browser. Thus the server will not be heavy loaded like standard PDF export does.

> It is highly faster than standard PDF export.

> Warning

> This technically complex feature is highly dependent on the browser and is not compatible with all of them. It is compatible with the latest versions of IE (v11), Firefox, Edge and Chrome. Otherwise, the old export function will be used.

> Tip

> Forced feature activation/deactivation

> - To enable this feature for all browsers, add the parameter $pdfPlanningBeta=’true’; in parameters.php file.

> - To disable if for all browsers, add the parameter $pdfPlanningBeta=’false’; Default (when $pdfPlanningBeta parameter is not set) is enabled with Chrome, disabled with other browsers

> Export planning to MS Project

> You have the option of exporting XML in MS Project.

> Click on the button to start the export.

> A user parameter allows you to enter if you want to add the assignments when exporting the project to MS-Project format.

> If not, the name of the resources will not be available in the MS-Project application

> See: User Parameters into the chapter Tab Export

Add a new planning element

- Allows you to create a new planning element.

- The element is then added under the previously selected element and with the same level of incrementation

- The element is added to the Gantt chart and the detail area adapts to the content created.

- The details area allows you to complete the entry.

Popup menu - Create a new item

You can create several elements on the planning view and more on to the Global planning.

> GREEN BAR

> all is well

> Condition : Assigned resources are available and meet workload, validated or scheduled dates do not conflict with other items

> RED BAR

> Overdue tasks

> Condition: Planned end date > Validated end date - Real end date if completed task > Valited end date

> PURPLE BAR

> Impossible to calculate the remaining work

> Condition: If a resource is not or is no longer available on an activity.

> The calculator is trying to plan the workload. The resource assigned to the activity is unable to be planned for this task (absence, calendar, assignment or assignment periods, etc.); then the bar turns purple.

> SURBOOKING and OVERUSE BAR

> Resource capacity overbooking

> Condition: Add extra work time on the standard capabilities of your resources to plan more projects that you will not process.

> > See: Managment of surbooking periods

> > See: overuse

> SURCAPACITY BAR

> Overcapacity of resources

> Condition: The capacity of the resource has been changed. It can be under capacity or over capacity. That is to say, it does less or more than its FTE.

> For more information see: Variations in resource capacity

> REAL WORK IN PROGRESS

> Work in progress

> Condition: the length represents the percentage of completion based on the actual progress versus the length of the Gantt bar.

> CONSOLIDATION BAR

> Consolidation Bar

> Condition: graphical display of the dates consolidated by the group of planning elements for a project

> CUSTOM COLORS

> you can apply the color of your choice on the bars of the Gantt chart representing activities, milestones and meetings.

> Custom colors on the gantt chart bars

> If the Planned end date> Validated end date then the bar should be colored red. In case you have set a custom color, this state will still be indicated

> Custom colors on the gantt chart bars

> On the one hand, directly on the bar and on the other hand in the task list, where the indicators remain the original color.

> Click on the reset button to come back to original colors.

> Item name display

> Move the cursor over the bar to display item name and planned dates.

Dependency links

Dependencies allow to define the execution order of tasks (sequential or concurrent).

All planning elements can be linked to others.

Dependencies can be managed in the Gantt chart and in screen of planning element.

Dependencies between planning elements are displayed with an arrow.

> Create a dependency

> To create a dependency, left click on a bar of the gantt (the predecessor) and slide towards the successor.

> You can also create dependencies with the predecessor and successor tables at the bottom of the details area.

> Remember than the first task always drives the second.

> Predecessor and Successor section - In the NAME field, icons are displayed to indicate the type of dependencies

> - Click on on the corresponding section to add a dependency link.

> - Click on to edit the dependency link.

> - Click on to delete the corresponding dependency link.

> Dialog box - Predecessor or Successor element

> Modify a dependency

> Click on the arrow which turns orange, a pop up is displayed allowing you to modify the type and one to add a possible delay.

> The delay can be positive or negative. Negative delay allows overlapping of certain tasks

> See the strict mode of dependencies

> Dependencies dialog box

> Dependency types

> End-Start

> The second activity can not start before the end of the first activity.

> Start-Start

> The successor can not begin before the beginning of the predecessor. Anyway, the successor can begin after the beginning of the predecessor.

> End-End

> The successor should not end after the end of the predecessor, which leads to planning “as late as possible”.

> Anyway, the successor can end before the predecessor. Note that the successor “should” not end after the end of predecessor, but in some cases this will not be respected:

> - if the resource is already 100% used until the end of the successor

> - if the successor has another predecessor of type “End-Start” or “Start-Start” and the remaining time is not enough to complete the task

> - if the delay from the planning start date does not allow to complete the task

> Strict mode for dependencies

> Strict mode for dependencies

> The strict dependency mode is a global parameter in the work tab, planning section.

> By default, the strict dependency mode is set to YES.

> The strict dependency mode forces the successor planning element not to start on the same day as the same predecessor but the next day. Even if the task is finished before the end of the day.

> To have the successor start on the same day or before the end of the predecessor task, select NO for strict mode or you can also put a negative delay.

Milestone

Milestones appear as small diamonds. Filled if completed, empty otherwise.

Color of diamond depends on milestone progress.

### Details area

The details area is the same as on all the ProjeQtOr element screens and adapts according to the selected element.

For more details on this area, see the chapter Details window in the Graphical User Interface v 8.6

### Planning Modes

Projeqtor offers several ways to plan the workload for your resource with 11 different planning modes.

- As soon as possible

- Work together

- Must start before…

- Should end before…

- Regular between dates

- Regular between dates in full dat

- Regular between dates in half day

- Regular between dates in quarter day

- Recurring

- Fixed duration

- Manual planning

|MODE| As soon as possible

The task is planned to finish as soon as possible.

Note

For tasks “as soon as possible”, if no assignment is created but the validated work is defined, take the validated work as the default duration (instead of 1 days)

|MODE| Work together

When two or more resources are assigned to the same task, planning tries to find periods where all resources are available to work together.

Periods are searched “as soon as possible”.

If only one resource is assigned, this planning mode is exactly the same as “As soon as possible”.

If one resource is assigned more work than the other, the extra work is planned after working together periods.

|MODE| Must not start before validated date

The validated start date field must be set.

The task must not begin before a specific date.

|MODE| Should end before validated end date

The validated end date field must be set.

The task is planned backward from end to start.

“Floating” backward planning is not possible, validated end date must be defined.

|MODE| Regular between dates

- Allows to evenly distribute work between two dates.

- Used for management recurrent activities.

- The validated dates fields must be set.

Examples of the planning modes upcoming are based on 2 work days to plan on 10 days.

Work will be evenly divided between on working days. For instance, 0.2 days during 10 days.

|MODE| Regular in full days

Work will be distributed on full day between on working days.

Day | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10
--- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | ---
Distribution | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 1

|MODE| Regular in half days

The work will be distributed over half of the day between working days.

Day | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10
--- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | ---
Distribution | 0 | 0 | 0.5 | 0 | 0.5 | 0 | 0 | 0.5 | 0 | 0.5

|MODE| Regular in quarter days

Work will be distributed on one quarter of the day between on working days.

Day | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10
--- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | ---
Distribution | 0 | 0.25 | 0.25 | 0.25 | 0.25 | 0 | 0.25 | 0.25 | 0.25 | 0.25

See also: Regular modes with excess workload

> Regular modes with excess workload

> If the dates are too short compared to the assigned load, the excess load will be divided and added in the same way as the chosen mode.

> So you can get full days even in regular mode in quarter day or half days.

> > - Example with 8 days of workload to plan over 10 days with the Regular mode in half days between dates

> The load is distributed regularly so as to respect the dates.

> If the load is too high to meet the dates, the excess load will be distributed over the whole day after the validated end date and will therefore be late (red color)

|MODE| Recurring (on a weekly basis)

This new mode allows reserving availability on recurring tasks on a weekly basis, for example 1/2 day every Monday, 1h every day, …

Activities in this mode dynamically assign the work based on the start and end bounds:

> > - Start defined with a dependence End-Start or Start-Start

> > - End defined with an end-end dependency

> > - Planning mode for which the assigned work is not fixed

> > - Workload distributed weekly

> > - Adapts to the duration of the project

> See: Recurrent mode assignment

|MODE| Fixed duration

- The task is planned by duration.

- The task is “floating” depending on predecessors.

- The validated duration field must be set.

- It is not necessary to assign resources to the task.

- If work is assigned to the task, planning behavior is the same as “Regular between dates” but with floating task.

Note

If you want fixed duration with fixed start, use “Regular between dates”, or use milestone to define start.

|MODE| Manual planning

- Selection of activities through manual planning mode

- Choice for planned workload between planned work or real work data See: global parameters.

- Display of a monthly calendar of the same type as Absence with planned interventions

## Planning global

Global planning

The global planning allows to create and visualize any type of element (project, activity, milestones, risk, meeting, action …)

- Add and Show any new planning element on Gantt chart

- The created item is added in the Gantt and detail window is opened.

- The detail window allows to complete entry

- Project planning and activity planning calculation can be done in the Gantt.

Add a new activity

Depending on your profile and your rights, you can add an activity directly in the schedule by resource.

You must select an existing activity to insert the new activity into the WBS structure. If no activity is selected, the “add new item” icon will be grayed out.

The new activity is automatically inserted after the selected activity. It is then created under the same project as the activity selected during creation.

Advanced filters

Click on the icon to define an advanced filter.

The advanced filter allows to define clause to filter and sort.

Fore more details, see Advanced filters in the Graphical user interface section

## Planned Interventions

The goal is to make the specifications more flexible to cover broader and more generic needs.

Assignment

The assigned workload is no longer determined but will be entered on a calendar which can be clicked, per half-day.

See: Planned interventions assignment

Assigment with the Manual planning mode

The workload saved in this window will be displayed to the planned interventions screen.

List of Projects and activity

The list of activities displayed are in the planning mode “manual planning”. If no filter is selected (project, resource, organization …) then the screen does not display any data.

You cannot create new activities in manual planning mode from the intervention screen. You need to access the activities or schedule screen to create the new activity in manual planning mode. The new activity will then appear in the list.

Click on to access the activity screen and view its detail

FTE

In this calendar, we display graphically if we respect the quantity of people requested on the activity and on the half day.

Fill in an integer value for each activity to check.

If you enter 1, you expect at least one person to perform half a day on this activity.

A check is then carried out and takes into account all the resources assigned to each activity, and not only those selected and visible on the calendar.

If the field is left empty or at 0 then no control is carried out and the calendar will not display any green or red box.

> Green Box

> If the entry respects the workload constraint expected in FTE the box is green.

> Example with a value of 1 in the FTE field for the selected activity.

> This FTE value is defined for each half-day.

> You must therefore have 1 effective person planned for each half day whatever the resource or resources that will be provided

> Red Box

> If the total entry is greater than the expected workload in FTE the bos is red.

> Example, with a value of 1 in the ETP field is for each half day

> On the diagram we can see that the first two days, two resources are planned on the same half-day.

> The box then turns red. The workload is higher than expected since we expected a person on this half day and on this activity

> Non-colored box

> The total entry is less than the expected workload in FTE or there is no expected workload.

Interventions mode

The list of possible intervention methods is customizable.

This list can be modified via a setting screen in the list of values.

The saved modes will remain fixed for all projects and all teams.

Intervention mode

You can select an activity or a modality or both.

> - If the intervention mode is not selected, the box is colored according to the activity but no letter appears, and vice versa.

> - If only the intervention mode is selected, it will be saved without modifying the planned or actual work.

You can however add one or the other after having planned the intervention or the intervention mode.

A second click with the same parameters will delete the assignment.

Ctrl Click allows you to complete the two half days

Interventions Calendar

- Click on an activity and / or an intervention modes to plan workload on it

- Click on half a day to plan the workload

- The targeted half day is filled with the color of the selected activity and the letter of the chosen intervention mode.

> Light Gray color

> The light gray box indicates that the day is idle on the resource calendar.

> Dark Gray color

> The dark gray boxes indicate reality. It’s work actually performed and informed on the timesheet.

> When real work is completed for half a day, the box is half gray.

> If the full day is completed then the box is completely grayed out.

> Blue color

> The blue boxes indicate absences.

> Striped box

> The striped boxes indicates that the working time recorded by the resource has been validated.

Note

Planned or Real

The workload can be recorded as a planned load or as a real load.

This option can be set in the global settings.

### View intervention

This screen allows you to see your planned interventions.

You cannot modify these interventions or plan another half day on this screen.

It is a bit the equivalent of planning by resource but in manual planning mode
