Variance Report

[Django]

I have a project with numerous tasks that has numerous
dependencies. Often I have to run What If scenarios to
determine what impact a change to a task has on its
various dependencies. Is there a process by which one
could get a variance report which shows only the tasks
changed and the effect on such changes on the dependencies
without scrooling through hundreds of lines of data. In
other words filter out everything else.

Hello Django,
You can use Interim Plans : Tools / Tracking / Save Baseline / Interim
Plan...
and display the interim plan bars in the Gantt Chart : Format / Bar

Gerard thanks for the info. However, I was looking more on
the tables side of the Gantt Chart.

Dhango,

The Interim Plan fills in the Start1 and Finish1 fields, then Start2 and
Finish2...
So you insert these fields in the left hand table.
You can add a Number1 field, renamed "Variance" for ex, with a formula like
:
[Finish]-[Finish1]

And if the result is positive, display a red symbol :

Tools / Customize / Field...
