Viewing the plan and the baseline

These are shown on You can check the plan/baseline by looking at the Gantt bars in WBS Gantt-Chart. the Gantt chart screen.
The baseline bar is displayed when Baseline is enabled in View on the operations bar.

You can also check the plan start and end dates date and finish date for the plan on the WBS display.

Issues

The plan and baseline dates set in the issue are displayed as Gantt bars. The upper bar is the plan and the lower bar is the baseline.
The difference between these two Gantt bars represents the difference between the current plan and the baseline.

Versions

A version is displayed as a Gantt bar based on its start date and release date. The release date is displayed as a milestone (rhombus shape).

Viewing due dates

The due date set for an issue is indicated by a red line on the Gantt chart. 

You can also check the due date column in the WBS.

Viewing task delays

Warning alerts are useful for telling you if an issue has started or completed as planned. If there is a colored “!” on the left-hand side of the WBS, that means there is information about the status of the issue.

Clicking a warning alert will show the corresponding Gantt bar.

Viewing the progress rate of issues (percent done)

You can see progress for projects and versions on the WBS display. The progress rate is calculated as:

The number of resolved issues (date resolved is set) / the number of all issues * 100

Issue progress rates can be checked via Gantt bars, as well as on the WBS display. If the right-hand edge of a Gantt progress bar is to the left of the vertical dashed line (current date line), that means the task is behind plan. If the right-hand edge is to the right of the date line, the task is ahead of the plan.

Viewing the hierarchy structure 

The WBS display hierarchical structure shows the parent-child relationship of existing issues.
If an issue is displayed in gray this indicates that it is not directly related to the version displayed in the upper hierarchy (hierarchy structure is prioritized for display).

Viewing issue dependencies 

You can check for issue dependencies by looking at the blue arrows displayed between the Gantt bars. If there is a blue arrow from a predecessor issue pointing towards a successor issue, this indicates that the successor issue depends on the predecessor issue.

Types of task links or dependencies

There are four types of task links as follows:

Viewing the critical path

Enable Critical path in Tools  in View on the toolbaroperations bar. The critical path is highlighted, while other task bars and dependencies are shown in a pale color. The WBS display cannot be edited when the critical path is displayed. Issues which are not loaded are not included.

Viewing the resources plan

Check Resource view in View View on the toolbaroperations bar. The resources view is displayed on the WBS display and in Gantt chart format.

In the resources view you can display a list of assignees, as well resources bars showing time periods horizontally and % workload (units) vertically. A red line (called a 'limit line') indicates the maximum daily workload.

The resource bar is displayed in green if an assignee's workload units are below or in line with the limit line. If the workload units exceed the limit line, the resource bar will turn red. This indicates that the resources plan needs to be reviewed.

If you move your cursor onto the graph in the resources view, the issues to which the resources are allocated during that period, and their respective workloads, are displayed in a list.

Please note this version contains the following bugs.

• Issues which do not have planned end finish dates set are not displayed in the resources view.
• If there are consecutive resource bars with the same total workload, the resource view tooltip displays the issue list for the first period only.
