Task

In this tab, several buttons and menus are available for the manipulation of project tasks, divided in the following sections:

Vision - In this section, the system will make available for use the visions configured in the view profile associated with the project, the network diagram, and the resource usage. To switch between these options, click on the arrow located below the vision and select the desired option:
Gantt Chart	This vision is only displayed if the view profile associated with the project is the pre-configured profile of the system. It consists of a table containing the information pertaining to the project and its tasks and a bar chart on a timescale, which displays the duration and dependence between the tasks, enabling the performance of a better comparison between the planned and rescheduled data of the project tasks.
Tracking chart	This vision is only displayed if the view profile associated with the project is the pre-configured profile of the system. It consists of a table containing the information pertaining to the project and its tasks and a bar chart on a timescale, in addition to displaying the duration and dependence between the tasks, enabling the performance of a better comparison between the rescheduled and actual data of project tasks.
Detailed chart	This vision is only displayed if the view profile associated with the project is the pre-configured profile of the system. It consists of a table containing the information pertaining to the project and its tasks and a bar chart on a timescale, in addition to displaying the duration and dependence between tasks, enabling a detailed overview of all information of the tasks that compose the structure of the project.
Resources	This vision presents a table with all the allocated resources involved in the project, with the tasks to which they are allocated grouped below each one of them. It also displays the hours allocated to each task and the total hours allocated to each resource. In the calendar area, it is possible to graphically view the percentage of hours allocated for each resource, being: ▪Blue: 100% allocated ▪Green: Allocated ▪Red: Over-allocated
Network diagram	This vision displays all the project tasks and their dependencies through boxes that make up an organizational whole and are displayed in the format of a network.

▪The chart area, critical path, comparison with the actual, and the current date row will be displayed when accessing SE GanttChart, according to the definitions set in the Parameter tab of the vision data.

▪It is possible to hide/display the columns displayed in the table area, to customize the vision, so that only relevant information for the user is displayed.
