Project Cycle Time Analysis Portlet

The Project Cycle Time Analysis portlet displays the number of days spent in each project phase illustrated as a bar graph. Use this portlet to compare time spent in each phase for projects based on the same methodology. The project templates installed with the PMO Accelerator add-in are considered project methodologies. To use this portlet, select a methodology.

Follow these steps:

1. With the project open, open the Properties menu, and click Settings.

   The project settings page appears.

2. Click the Methodology drop-down menu and select a project methodology.

By default, the bar graph displays duration of each project phase in the methodology. The X-axis shows the duration in days. The Y-axis shows the corresponding project phase. The length of each bar in the graph represents the distribution of project duration by phase. Click one of the bars to open the properties page of the specific project. Click a graph legend entry to exclude that group from the graph.
