On the right side of the Projects window, dynamic charts are generated and updated automatically as you modify project details and users' task statuses. These charts are a useful way to see the health of your projects at a glance. You can also open each chart or user allocation profile to see detailed data. There are six charts:
| Chart | Description |
|---|---|
| Projects by Customer for this Month | Groups the number of customers by project for the current month. |
| Projects by Customer for This Year | Groups the number of customers by project for the current year. |
| Projects Running Behind | Displays projects that are active and have not been completed by the requested completion date. |
| Project User Allocation | Displays the number of active projects a user is allocated to. |
| Average Time Over Completion Time by User | Calculates the average excess time it takes a user to complete project tasks for the requested completion date. |
| Average Time Over Completion Time by Customer | Calculates the average excess time it takes a user to complete project tasks for the requested completion date of a customer. |
