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 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've created a Gantt chart using the tip #58. Now how can I count all the cells that are colored?
Let's suppose that I have a serie of activities. All activities are done in an interval of time and there is not overlapping.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI 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 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.

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 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'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 am looking for the best way to use conditional formatting in a Gantt chart. I want the cells to turn blue if they fall between two dates.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'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 have been struggling for some time to find a simple code to color index cells that have two conditions, one being the task owner and the second being the time requirement.
I have a drop down list for populating each row of a gannt chart with the owner, this owner also has an associated number referencing the allocated colour index number.
To the right of the owner is a basic time line with each column represneting days, weeks or whatever measurement.
These columns are populated simply with an "x".
What I want to do is to choose the owner, go across to the time, type in an "x" in the time slots and the cells with an "x" are coloured with the relevant owners colr index.
I have researched the threads, read my text books, looked up the help and found a lot of references which are around the solution but none which nail it.
Looking forward to your assistance.

i m having a problem similiar to the above.I tried using the nested ifs in Conditonal formatting but i m getting errors.Can anybody complete my formula
Based on a Beginning Date Value and an Ending Date Value - I would like to color a range of Cells - the month (dates) are in the header row.
For example: Beginning Date = 01/01/09
Ending Date = 06/01/09
I want the range of cells in the same row colored orange under Jan '09 to June '09.
Column DColumn EColumn FTarget %DifferenceCash4%5.12%Large-Cap8.5%1.73%Commodities4%-1%
I need to color code Col F based on the following criteria:
If F2/E2>20%, then shade pink else no color. I only care about the absolute values. The 20% number can change depending on the category. So for commodities, the limitation is 30%. Like that I have a list of about 20 asset classes, 14 of which have the 20% constraint, rest are either 25% or 30%. I would like the cell color to be updated each time I import a file. Also I have other conditional formatting on Col F (like red color if negative number) so I don't know if another conditional format will work on the same cells?
Currently F37 has a vlookup code that gives me text values and what I am looking to do is to color code these values.
For Example if the text value is GOOD, should be colored GREEN, VERY GOOD = YELLOW and OUTSTANDING = RED.
I would like the color of an entry to automatically be set depending on an input. For example if “R” is entered into the cell, the color of the text would automatically be green. Is a macro the best way to handle this? If so, what would the program language look like? Other solutions?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI´m trying to do a macro that changes the color of all fonts in a row if the cell in the column "R" has the date lower than a specific one, something like this:
Dim Data2 As Date
Data2 = Sheets("Sheet1").Range("today")
Range("R12").Select
Do While ActiveCell <> ""
If ActiveCell < Data2 Then
ActiveCell.EntireRow.Select
Selection.Font.ColorIndex = 3
Else
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Activate
End If
Loop
But it just don´t work. The macro does that in the first row, than it stops. Do you have another code for this, or another way to do?

So... Monthly budgeting... using a projected outgoing (A1) and an actual outgoing (A2) i want the colour "A2" to change depending on whether i have spent over the budgeted amount, green being underspent, orange for on target and red for over spending....
Example:
I predicted (A1) that i was going to spend £50 on a night out, but my actual spending (A2) was £100, i would like A2 to turn to red.
