💭How‑to guide

Customizations are flexible and offer a variety of views such as data grid, tree map, stacked column, charts, and more; the instructions below provide a basic overview of how to use the customize option starting with the data grid.

Step 1: Open customize panel

Click the Customize button on the upper right corner to open the panel.

Step 2: Configure your display settings

ℹ️ In this example: We want to display allocations per staff and their associated projects.
⚠️ Note: Key items to adjust may vary per visualization type.

As we work on the Data Grid view, key items to adjust are:

  • Visualization – type of visual remains Data Grid (Data Grid, Tree Map, etc.)
  • Group by – set to Staff Display name to organize allocations by staff 
  • Data to display – set to Project Display name to see each staff's assignments to the projects they are working on
💡Tip: Use the arrows on the right side to easily interchange the Group by and Data to display values with a single click
  • Unit to display – set to Man days, to see the number of working days 
  • Columns – set to Month, this defined the granularity of the data view

Step 3: Apply changes

Click on Apply changes and see the updates applied in the chosen visualization.
In this example (Data Grid), staff appear first, and expanding a row shows the projects they are allocated to.
