Thank you for this video on Gantt charts. I'm a grad student and truly appreciate the breakdown in excel that you shared, and user friendly tips you provided.

Amazing! The Date formatting in charts is something I always had trouble with but you have helped unravel this mystery for me by not changing the serial numbers to actual dates...Very cool!

Great. Glad to hear that.

Great chart! I like to add another series to the chart with a vertical error bar and an x value of =today() to help show how we are tracking to our plan each day. Excellent tutorial!

You are an Excel Goddess!!!!

Thanks Leila, really appreciate this. I love it!

Thank you for your videos. It's helping me to explore parts of Excel I wasn't coming across in my job but already I am excited to try out new techniques

It makes me feel at ease and smiling :) The reason is when you do need a fully dynamic Gantt Chart and such you just grab the dedicated planning software and do you job. But anyway, what I saw here is brilliant as usual. A piece of a trick for your prof scope in Excel. Thanx, Leila!

Great as usual. Hope you are well. As a project manager I usually need to show the difference from actual and plan! I mean i should see them both at the same time to figure out if i within , behind or ahead from plan! This could be done by adding a series to the chart as I think. In addition what about using the conditional formatting to cells instead of chart ? What are the advantages and disadvantages? ( space or numbers of cells , colors for formatting, dynamic issues, ... etc) Keep up the good work.

@LeilaGharani

Hi Abdelrahman, Thanks for your input. To get the graphs right beside or on top of each other, I would probably duplicate it - i.e. create one just for Actual - then duplicate and replace series with the plan one. To get them in one graph, I'd probably put them on top of each other - by taking away the fill color and possibly making the plan series more transparent so it doesn't distract too much from actual. Generally, I prefer to work with charts when I can - this way I have an object that sits on top of the cells - with conditional formatting cells method, I have to make sure the cell widths always remain the same, otherwise the visualization would be impacted....

Amazing

very nice

Good Evening Leila, Your videos are well thought out, perfectly presented, very insightful. Question: If possible, how can this be modified to show the Critical Path?

Great graph as always! Is it possible to divide this chart to use only three days and breakdown to hours?

thanks

Great video! Really show what you did and how to make it yourself, however how would I change this to work by weeks instead of dates?

Wow!! Thank you. :) any way you can show us how to create a collapsed view of the planned durations + percent complete? I’m trying to show a row for each project (broken out by dependent phases/task) and which allows me to include multiple projects, 1 for each row. Dashboard format...you’re the best!

Hi Leila, great tutorial, do you have any videos for adding dependency lines at all?

Hi Leila. Tremendously enjoy your excel series. In an excel Gantt chart, is there way to display the current cumulative total percentage of the progress? Thank you for all the spreadsheet tutorials in your channels

Hi, thank you for the tutorial, it's very helpful. However, I would like to make a Gantt Chart to compare two methods for a project. Do you think it's possible to show for each tasks the time it's took with method 1 and method 2 ?

You're the best! I'd like to see your take on using a "Named Formula" within the Name Manager, where you create a new named item, that is just a formula so you can use that name as a shortcut to nest that formula within another. In the Microsoft Calendar Template, this is used as "JanSun1", "FebSun1, etc...

Hi Leila your videos are really awesome. It really helps me learn new things and polish the old ones. Regarding gantts, i have this scenario though, that instead of tracking days, im tracking sales per person on a time range. Is it possible to do it on gantts? Thanks! and More power.

Hi Leila. Great video. Perfect speed, video and sound quality. The Task titles in the chart are out of alignment. How can I right align them?

WOOOOOOOOW THAT WAS F*CKING AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GOD BLESS YOU GIRL MAY GOD POUR YOU A MILLION BLESSING THIS WAS REALLY AWESOME THANK YOUUUU!!!!! (AND THANK YOU TO MICROSOFT TOO THE BEST THING THAT EXISTED HEHE)

Thank you for such great chart, I would like to know how show the finish date on the chart?

Hi Leila, Thank you vrey much for the informative video, It helped a lot with office work. In my work, I have to sometimes hold some activities for some time and then again start after few days, so do you have something that can help me show it on gantt chart?

Thank you Leila! Is there an option to set the minimum and maximum values automatically, e.g. 30 days before the earliest date, and 30 days after the latest date? Can I reference these values when formatting the Axis Bounds Min/Max?

Super. Thank you. If we want to show both plan and actual together on the chart, can you please show that?

Hi Leila my name is Alan! Thank you very much for the videos on Gantt charts with Excel. Nothing to difficult but the way you put yourself across was very good for me... simple and to the point, softly and no bravado! I have one question though if you could please help me? Where you changed the Y axis task name to include the (**WD) formulae to show number of the work days for each task in the description, how can I edit the formulae (syntax) to display only the (**WD) in RED BOLD text and, the rest of the task description in BLACK text? Sorry, I'm sure its very simple but I am a newbie! Thank you!

I came to this from the more recent of Leila's gantt charts, all good instruction. I was just wondering about dependencies. That is, an activity starting at the completion of a predecessor, or even multiple predecessors. For just one predecessor, a simple calculation would do it, but if there is more than one? I guess a 'max' function of the identified predecessors. I'll get onto it and see what I can do.

Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Really appreciate. I have enrolled for our course also in Udemy. Can you explain, how to show the break in the schedule.. for example the work is started and then there was a gap due to some issues and it resumed after a week. How to show the split like they show in MS project.

Hi Leila, great tutorial! Many thanks. I'm using Excel 2013. For some odd reason at min 6:51 I wasn't getting the same result, the chart came out odd every time. I've tried several options and eventually the only one that worked for me was to select the "Data Prep." table first and then the "Task" list. Many thanks.

You're welcome Ricardo --- hmmm interesting that Excel 2013 didn't pick it up. Glad you found a way :)

I love the video. Question, how would you go about adding the percentage inside the bar chart? I tried adding the labels but if is pulling the # of days.

Thanks and it's awesome.. Can I show a actual abd planned in same chart

Thanks for the video. Is there a way to add dependencies in the gantt chart through arrows?

Thanks a lot for the video very useful ! What if we have multiple countries in drop down instead of "plan" & "actual"? The if statement in the prep data won't work. How to set up the similar thing for multiple countries?

Great explanation.. If i need to add dependencies which points through arrows between tasks? Will that be possible to create in excel?

Thank you, Leila. How can I change the date on the x-axis? E.g. to quarters?

Thanks for pivot table . Is there any table or chart regarding planing .suppose we have 100 acitvities and all activities time shedule is different .supose one activity schedule is after 35 days .so is there any provision excel by which we can get its alarm 5 days earliar and marked with different color.

Hi, great chart ! Can it predict end date using % done job?

Its good work , but its better if you can linked and dependant tasks

This is another excellent trick to draw a bar chart. Is it possible to link with one task to another as tasks are inter linked?

Thanks for such awesome video saved me from my Boss ;but getting error while displaying graphs for actual & plan it is showing same graph ;for simple chart it worked

Leila, excellent narration and reference material. I am struck, while inserting the completion data. I am getting the completion information for plan data. Is this fine to show up. Thanks

excellent tutorial, How can I display Start & End dates on the tasks bar (like value)

Hello Leila :) I have a querry regarding Gantt Chart. How can i display time taken by a specific task ( if its achieved within the planned time it should show 1 color & if it exceeds the planned time it should flag in red color.) is there any specific formula for showing this..? Also can i co relate the % of task completion with above task.

This a great.....but can you show a bar chart showing actual dates start earlier.

Can you make it dynaminc to be able to select month and year? Maybe also be able to show different views, like daily, weekly and monthly?

Thank you very much for all your videos, Leila! It's been almost 2 weeks now that I can't plot time (not date) into my Gannt chart. Setting min and max bound on horizontal axis won't work for me, as I am setting a dynamic chart range like in your video published on Jul 6, 2017. How can I get my x-axis plot the time correctly on a stacked bar chart?
