Calculating manhours

Hello,

Is it possible to calculate man hours per project using Project Server?

Many thanks in advance,

Yes you can. One way to do this is to use a calulated field in the OLAP
cube. Which can be added in using the caluator button. So for example the
report has monthes as the time scale and people are excepted to work 168
hours per month simply divide the work by 168 for a FTE.

this works if every month has 168 hours, which is not always true...don't you
need to know the number of hours 1 fte can work each month, and then use that
number as your denominator...to do that, you can use a look up table for year
and month, and lookup what hours are normal for each month of the year. for
example in December, 144 hours might be the denominator. This works, if you
really need exact, fte required AND fte Capacity from the cube.
