Manpower Histogram in MS Project

Hello,

I am a beginner user of MS project, so my query may seem a bit silly.

I would like to make a histogram to illustrate the manpower allocated to the project on a daily basis.  The video below shows a similar histogram.

I have tried to use “Resource Usage” to produce this histogram, but it was not good enough.

Can anyone please let me know of a better way to produce this histogram?

If I need to export the data to Excel, can you tell how I view the data to be exported (resources allocated to project on daily basis?)

Thanks in advance,

Sam

Sam,

"resource usage" is good enough to copy and paste data from MSP into Excel and then to present it in a way you want it to be presented.

You have a flexibility to show "peak Units" or Work, whatever you need to show. If you decide to show "Work", then in Excel you will have to remove "h" at the end by using Excel Replace functionality.

Let me know if you have more questions

Regards.
