Dashboard Reports

[cindy.becken]

I would like to create a report in a dashboard format. The report should
show all projects assigned to me and at either a milestone, task summary or
overall project level if they are on target, at risk or behind. This report
would be used by upper management. In the web how would I do this?

Thanks

Before you could create the report in question, you would need to create a
custom enterprise Task field that tracks schedule variance and displays a
stoplight indicator showing the severity of slippage against the original
baseline schedule. After doing so, you will need to create custom Views in
both Microsoft Project Professional and PWA using this new custom field. To
do so, use the examples show in the following link:

When you create your custom detailed Project view in PWA, you will need to
modify this view with the following filter to display the Project Summary
Task, summary tasks, and milestones:

Summary Equals Yes OR
Milestone Equals Yes

Hope this helps.
