Scale: Time Period and Aggregation

Introduction

This functionality will help you set the right time frame and data aggregation. Depending on what you do and how you account for the time, you can set different aggregation types. For example, if a project has a due date and your team members work overtime to deliver it on time, you will see a capacity overload from a weekly perspective. Still, there will be no capacity overload visible from the monthly perspective. Also, you can customize the colors and aggregations to see as much data as you need, even from the semiannual perspective.

Time Period

Use the arrows in the App's header to move to the previous or next period. Adjust the scale to fit more tasks into the current view.

There are four views available:

Time period

Week

 

Month

 

Quarter

 

Half year

 

Aggregation

You can change the way data is aggregated. Set aggregation:

  • Daily

  • Weekly

  • Monthly

Information about the aggregation time period is listed in the workload details dialog.

When the aggregation is set to "Daily" and the time scale is set to "Quarter," the workload will only be displayed using colors because the numbers do not fit into the boxes in this view.
