How to use statistical charts and show the timeline chart panel in your schedule

Statistical Charts are a great overview of usage, availability and utilization of your resources and can also be used to see your busier and quieter periods of time. Charts use your current visible date range to calculate the data shown. Using the filter allows you to narrow the data further to specific event types or resources, like events of a certain type e.g. holidays or sickness, for a specific client or project, or any other filter criteria.

Turn Charts on and off from the View menu Timeline Charts.

Tip: You can use the filter to change the information the chart data is showing and change the date range to see more or less dates in your charts.

There are many chart options and below are just some available:

Simple Events & Unique Events

This chart shows each 'Day' and how many events are booked for each of the 14 days shown across all your resources. The 'Unique Events' chart only counts events once if they are linked to multiple resources.

Resources Free, Working Resources Free & Resources Busy

This chart shows each 'Day' for your chosen date range, and the number of Resources that have no events (or are busy) on each day. The 'Working Resources' only counts resources that are available based on their working hours.
