Creating a Gantt Task

Add a task and associated resource to the Gantt chart.

Implementation:

  1. Open the model containing the Gantt chart on the front end.
  2. Click in the Gantt chart's toolbar.
  3. Enter a Task Name.
  4. Specify the commencement date of the intended task using the date picker for Start Date.
  5. Specify when you want the intended task to end using the date picker for End Date.
  6. Use the Up and Down arrows to specify the current progress of the intended task. This is a percentage value, so you can enter any whole number between 0 and 100.
  7. Switch to the Resources tab.
  8. Click to add a resource to the task. A row will appear displaying the list you added to your Resources table earlier.
  9. Use the column's drop-down menu to assign a resource to the task.
  10. Specify the resource Unit for the assigned task's resource by using the Up and Down arrows.

Unit is measured as a percentage, and represents the amount of resources spent on a particular task.
