Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

Hai Guyzz,
I have assigned man days for different categories as resouces. Now i need to summarize the progress percentsge
based on these weightages, also i need to show the same on the summary bar. What i have been doing is, first export the weightages to excel then calculate the percentage in exel itself but i was not able to show it in the P3 layout. So i will highly appreciate, if anyone could advise me in this.

Dear sudheesh,

Without deleting the resources you cannot have the effect that you want.
Maybe you should see
View>resource profile
select the "Manhours" resource from there .

Hope this helps
regards
pranab

layout by resource mean u need to assign a unique resource name or ID. these could be in term of disciple work or system works. then just use a summary by resource, then run it.. eg Mechanical works, Piping works, electrical works etc..

Thanks for ur reply. But i hope u dint get me. If i summarize by resources it will take all the resources including material without considering their units. Instead i need to summarize based on some specific category of resources only, like man hours..
