RiskyProject Data Sheets

 

All RiskyProject views, except for the Project Summary view and Project Dashboard, contain data sheets. Data sheets are used to enter and present data in a grid format. Grids are also used in some dialog boxes. All data sheets have similar features.


Data sheets are used to display task information, resources, risks, and results of sensitivity analysis. Data sheets are composed of columns and rows. Each column has specific properties, which represent a specific data type. For example, resource name, resource type, etc. You can customize data sheets to display the columns in any order and any with a title in the column header. See the appendix for a full description of each field.


Modifying data sheets


You can modify all of the RiskyProject views by inserting, modifying, or hiding columns depending on the type of information that you want to view.
1. Right-click on the column header.
2. From the shortcut menu, choose how you want to modify the column:
    •  Hide
    •  Insert Column Before or After
    • Modify (Change field type, Title, Title and Data alignment, Width)


•  This adjustment will be saved in RiskyProject data file associated with the particular project. Therefore, the next time you open the project, you will see your column modifications. This way you can create a customized data sheets for each view.
•  Remember that these adjustments to data sheets are inclusive to each view. For example, if you inserted column into the Gantt View, it will not be reflected in Result Gantt View.
