Employee Scheduling Program Gantt Chart
Feb 14, 2007
I'm trying to create an Employee Scheduler. I want my employees (1 technician per row for a total of 10 rows) in the 1st column then the monthly calendar to the right (1 cell/day). That is what you'll see when you open the worksheet. Then, down below I set up my Data Area where I input my project, start date, end date, technician (where each tech is assigned a unique number), and other data across a row of cells. This could be infinite (or at least up to the very last row).
I modified a free Project Scheduler I got from XL-EasyGantt to become my Employee Scheduler but am having some difficulties getting it to do what I want. The project Scheduler basically works by entering (on the same row) the project (or task), the start date and finish date and then the cells get automatically filled in across those dates. This allows for overlapping of tasks but I want to create an Employee Scheduler so it doesn't allow overlapping or schedule a technician to start a new project before he/she has completed the one their on.
The main function which is in each cell of the monthly calendar is as follows: =IF(OR(AND($G28>=K$4,$G28<L$4),AND($M28>=K$4,K$4>=$G28)),IF(AND($E11="x",$M28>=K$4,$M28<L$4),"x",IF($E11=".",".","..")),"")
My problem: I want to be able to look at the Main Schedule and see when each Technician is scheduled for a job (or multiple jobs) for any given month. I want the function to look in my Data Area and assign the start date and end date of a project and the corresponding technician number and fill in the date cells across from their name in the Schedule above.

I have a scheduling problem that I'm trying to get my head around. Im sure that some kind person can give me some ideas on how to get this started. It may be extremely easy, but I just cant get it off the ground. Basically I have 15 doctors that work for me - 9 full time (38hrs/week) and 6 part time (15+hrs/week) in a general practice. We are open 7 days a week
Open Close
Monday8:3019:00
Tuesday8:3019:00
Wed8:3019:00
Thur8:3021:00
Fri8:3019:00
Sat9:0018:00
Sun9:0018:00
Doctors have 5 days on and then 2 days off.
The below is the proposed daily schedule and the doctor requirements. % of booked patients for the times and % of random patients for the times are included as well as average waiting times.

18:00 - 19:00Decreasing70%30%1hr6-7

There are 3 types of patient visits

%0.810.140.05
Minutes153045
58% of patients choose their doctor and 42% come in off the street and will take the first available doctor.
and finally - doctors cant work for more than 4 hours without a break. brek details are below
HoursBreak
<4hrs0
4 - 5hrs10min
5 - 8hrs2*10 mins - 45min lunch
8+2 * 10min 2*45min lunch
I need to create a timetable for the doctors which optimises their time based on the above details. I also need to design a data sheet for reception which will maximise the number of patients seen. Finally I need to calculate what the maximum number of patients the centre can see on an average day say monday.

I'm trying to come up with an Employee Shift Scheduling template. I have 6 employees total with 3 different shifts (day, swing, graveyard). I would like to not do a rotating shift. I'm trying to figure out if a 5X8 shift is better or 4X10 and I would like to come up with a weekly schedule where I can see what shift everyone is working and were I have double coverage.

The below is a sample Gantt chart that I'm using, it's working fine, what I want to do is when the STATUS is completed (Column H) goes from a cross to a tick (I'm using the format of Wingdings 2 - cross is O and tick is P) is to change the Gantt chart colour from it's current colour of green to say orange. In conditional formatting (in cell I3) I have, formula is =AND(I$2>=$F3,I$2

I am trying to find a way to automate this crude gant chart. What I am trying to do is the following:
1: By entering a start date and due date, and by adding a percentage to 4 different goals, create a sort of gant chart for each job.
2: Have this chart update as the start and due dates change.
3: Be able to past other gant charts below this one, based on the leader assigned to each job. ie. if Dave is a leader, create a worksheet that will have all of dave's Gant charts in one workbook, on one worksheet, pasted each one below the next. The goal being we can give each leader 1 sheet that has all their jobs.

I tried so long I finally gave up and drew this by hand in MS Word:
But I wonder if you guys could help me chart this automatical in Excel.
I want to chart the time period a ship (Vela, Serpentine, Rainbow etc) are contracted. I want a specific color for the firm contract, and another for the remaining optional contract. If a ship is under construction I also want a bar showing when it's done.
Each ship has a rate. I want this written on the bar. In "Vela's" case there are to rates for the same contract: The first 740 days the rate is 24,5 the rest of the period it is 29. I also would like to be able plot an additional contract for the same ship for example after "Syrena" is done in yr 2009.

Hey Guys- I'm not sure if this is even possible but I need some help. I have attached a file below similar to a gantt chart. I need help with the conditional formatting, as I have manually changed the colors to match what I need automated.
Basically I have 6 tasks and I need to change dates for individual projects but I also need the corresponding color to also change.

I am developing a Excel gantt chat i have chosen to display the bars by the lenght of the cell because the data is also most real time so as the time reduces so will the bars however the problem comes when there is tasks being done under one above it as i cant have the cells with different widths
What would be the best way to get around it as i want to keep the almost and the appearance of the real time nature of the cell width equal to the value.

I have created a pseudo Gantt chart in Excel (a horizontal stacked bar chart). The chart is driven off data I have in a Power Pivot model (Auto Refreshed) and the Gantt chart displays data which spans a fixed 12 hour time frame.
The problem I am having is that in order for me to get the chart to display correctly I must manually (daily) get the excel decimal values for my Minimum DateTime and Maximum DateTime and then enter those numbers into the "AXIS Options" Bounds Minimum and Maximum value fields. I would like to automate that process so that the Axis Bounds are either driven from the data cells OR are always set to a specific 12 hour window 6pm->6am daily.

I am looking to create a spreadheet that will automatically shade blocks in a gannt chart according to a list of dates.
I.e B13 & B14 will have the start and end date of the particular task or activity (this will be on another sheet)
Row A3 - S3 will contain dates, iusing a lookup formulas excel will look up the activity name (or number) and look for the relevant date, if the date listed in row 3 is within or equal to that date it will return yes, if not a no.
this seemed straightforad, but I cant think of a consistent formula that will do this, without having to keep changing it ...

I'm attempting to chart data obtained from our phone system to see when users are logged in/on rest.
I'm using Excel 2007.
The data we extract has:
person | status | start | finish | duration
Status is either "login" or "rest"
Start/finish is time (h:mm)
Duration is a formula (h:mm, finish - start)
I want to have a stacked bar chart that shows when a person was logged in/on rest; one bar for each person.
x-axis: person
y-axis: time (8am - 6pm)
legend: status
The problem I'm encountering is that each person logs in and out multiple times throughout the day (therefore, has multiple lines to their name in the data), and I can't get this information to appear on a single bar for each person.
I've sorted the data into a pivot table which gives me the information I want, but how to get the chart.
Row labels
a. Person
b. status
c. start
Values
Min of duration
Ideally, I would like to avoid using a Gantt chart within cells (as it would involve vlookup/if statements), but am beginning to think that's my only option...

I have a list of task owners that are assigned tasks. The tasks are mapped out in Gantt chart form with time shown by an "X".
what I want to do is to colour the cells "X" with the associated cell colour of the task owner and should the owner change, the cell colour changes.

I'm using a stacked bar chart (in Excel 2010, running on Windows 7) to create a simple Gantt-type chart - with just four or five bars. I've got my chart looking most of the way I want it to, but one thing still eludes me: I'd like to set up the major axis ticks to be quarters of the year (from 1/1/2011 to 4/1/2013). Since quarters are not regular intervals (they are not exactly every 90 days), I can't do this using Excel's standard functionality for choosing axis tick marks.

I'm trying to create a simplified Gantt chart of sorts, and cannot figure out one piece of it. I'm not sure how to write out exactly what I need, but here goes.
I would like to have a formula that looks at the percent completed (which the user inputs) and multiplies it by the total duration for the task to give a total number of days completed. Then, under the corresponding dates, the color of the cell would change. I've attached a simplified version of what I'm talking about.
On the attached spreadsheet, the total duration (D2) is 5 days and the percent completed (C2) is 40%. This calculates to 2 days. With that said, I would like the cells under the first 2 days under the listed dates (E2 and F2) to change color. When the percentage complete reaches 60%, then G2 would change color, when it reaches 80%, then H2 would change, and when it reaches 100%, then I2 would change.
My guess is that the formula will need to result in a particular value, and then I'll use Conditional Formatting to do the actual changing of the cell color. Assuming this is correct, I still don't know what formula to use to accomplish this.

I am trying to automatically generate an organisation chart in excel from a dynamic list of employees. in column 'A' will be the "manager's name", column 'B" will be the "employee name", column 'C' will be the "employee number" & column 'D' will be the "employee days" number (an potentially a few more employee attributes)
I would like a printable org chart that is created on another tab which is generated from this list, ideally with the "employee name" and their other attributes shown in the chart.
how this can be done in excel, maybe VBA?

I have columns with the dates on the top, and staff listed on the rows to the left of the speadsheet. I must have 4 H's (indicating a base location), and 4 F's (indicating another base) in the column below the date. I want to have a cell, just above the date which will highlight red if there are any less than 4 H's and 4 F's. If there are 4 H's and 4 F's in the column (indicating full staffing levels), then I want the same cell to turn green, indicating that the day is OK. The red highlight would be a quick scan for supervisors to look at and see if we are deficient on staffing, and will prompt us to look for people who can be the missing H or F.

I have a table like the one below:
Day Night
2/26/2007DC
2/27/2007AB
2/28/2007AB
3/1/2007 CD
3/2/2007 CD
3/3/2007 BA
3/4/2007 BA
Each letter represents a 12 hour shift (ex. D team has 36 hours for the week). If I need coverage on 2/27/07 on the day shift, I need to find a team that is working 36 hours for that week and was not scheduled to work the shift before or the shift after. (Example, on 2/27/07 A team needs coverage. The only teams working 36 hours are D and C. C team work the previous shift. So the code would input D in a cell).

Is there a way to set the ontime application to run even when excel is turned off? I'd like to be able to refresh a data table every morning at 6:30, even if excel is not on. Ideally, if even my computer isn't on. The code below works, but only if the sheet is open to the exact worksheet.
Option Explicit
Public RunWhen As Double
Public Const cRunWhat = "The_Sub"
Sub StartTimer()
RunWhen = TimeValue("09:54")
Application.OnTime earliesttime:=RunWhen, procedure:=cRunWhat, _
schedule:=True
End Sub
Sub The_Sub()
'my code here

I have 20 staff members that I need to schedule in half day shifts (AM & PM) across three different locations for the month of July.
I want to make sure there is no overlap/duplication for any one staff in a time slot. Nor do I want any one staff member to work an AM and PM shift in the same day.
Ideally, I would also like to avoid back-to-back shifts (e.g., not allow PM on Monday to be scheduled for an AM on Tuesday).
Lastly, I would like to have the number of shifts be be as equitably distributed across all of the staff members as well.
Any way that I can do this in Excel?

I have a macro that I want to run on an hourly basis, say at 9am, 10am, etc whenever the workbook is open. This needs to be definable as I have several users that will be conducting the same activity throughout the day. In other words I want the macro to run on the hour for user 1, quarter past the hour for user 2, half past for user 3 and quarter to for user 4. Each user does have their own unique macro to run so it should (hopefully) just mean introducing a line of code to each, defining the time to run.

I have an excel spreadsheet that contains customer data exported from Quickbooks. In that file there is a column called CType (Column G) which contains the scheduling cycle for that customer. There are eleven different possible schedules, including 15xYr, 1xMo, 2xMo, EOM (every other month), EOW (every other week), EOW-S / 1xMo-W (every other week between 5/1 and 10/31 and once a month during the rest of the year), EOW-Th (every other week but must be on a Thursday), ETW (every third week), On Call, W, Q.
Although the number of records changes daily, on average there are about 950 rows of data in the spreadsheet.
I need to set up an array (?) for the values in column G starting with G2 through the last non-blank row (all records will have data in column G), and calculate the next scheduled service date based on the schedule type shown in column G and the last service date which will appear in column M of that row. The last thing I need to consider is whether there is a value in Column N, which would represent a hard-entered ‘Next Scheduled Service Date’. If I find a date in that column it needs to over-ride the calculated value. My assumption to this point is that I should use a new column T to hold the value of the calculated schedule date. There are a few other details, but rather than confuse this whole thing further I’ll stop there.
What I’m struggling with is the most efficient means of running this macro. I’ve been looking at many, many threads over the past few weeks, reading
VBA Programming for Dummies (which I apparently am), and reviewing other resources.

I am wanting to have a schedule posted as 8:00am to 5:00pm to show up in a format that shows the interval every thirty minutes with either a 1 or a zero so that I can calculate each intervals total staffing. Also if a break or lunch is entered I would like it to show a zero or .5 in the field (.5 being for 15 mins and 0 for anything taking the full 30 mins).
