When the Auto-Timing process has been run, the Project Gantt Schedule can be recreated to capture the changes made in the project task timing. The Gantt Schedule schedules each task by phase according to the dates along the top row for which the frequency is specified in the 'Resources' sheet.
Each task's timeline is color coded according to the Phase colors specified in the 'Pre-Defined' sheet. Tasks that have been completed are colored in dark grey. Each colored cell in the task timeline is commented with the task details and participant's productivity schedule for the cells time period.
Underneath the Task timelines are totals of Full-time man hours (scheduled and completed), and Costs (operating, capital and total) for the time period relating to each column. If the selected scheduling frequency specified in the 'Resources' sheet is Days, then columns for weekends and public holidays are blocked out of the scheduling.
If the project deadline (also specified in the 'Resources' sheet) occurs before the expected end date of the final task, then the project deadline is marked and labeled on the schedule in red.
