Standard Units of Measuring Productivity

Dear All,

Please what is the CORRECT way to refer to productivity (production) rates; is it:

A. Quantity of work per unit of resource e.g tonnes/hr

OR

B. Resource per unit of work e.g hrs/tonnes

I have come across this confusion across the internet even in PP rates & norms, where some are option A (above) biased and some otherwise. Or we can use these however we like? (I really doubt this).

I hope clearer light will be shone on this by respected planners.

 

Thanks,

Abdulhafiz

Thunderline Report

Hi,

I would like to know if there is any specific format of a thunderline report. The japanese people seem to follow it very keenly and they are asking me to prepare a report based on this format which they do not even have a sample of.

I have not seen or heard of any report as such.

Can someone help.

 

Thanks and Regards,

Aamir

Resource Assignment Spreadsheet Print Help

R
Ryan K 👤 Member for 14 years

Hey gang,

This seems simple but I can't find the solution. When printing from the Resource Assignment spreadsheet view, my data spans across two sheets of paper, however, the second page only shows a continuation of the data, it does not repeat the left columns, i.e. Activity ID, Activity Name etc. This can be a bit confusing when trying to match the second page up to the first to see which activity you're looking at.

Anyone know how to make this show up/print on the second sheet as well without having to export to excel?

Thanks,

RK

Man Power Histogram from actuals

S
Saju TS 👤 Member for 17 years

Dear all

 I prepared a man power histogram from actual dates ( actual start and expected date to finish ). there are activities alredy started and compleated 50% and consumed 50 % of man power, but the generated man power histogram  not showing any  reduction of man power in started activities . I really want to filter the consumed man power from the activity and show a realistic histogram , please give your suggestions  to create  a man power histogram in P3 by filtering man power  that already consumed

thanks
