Organizational Charts

[Mandy J.S.]

I have been asked by upper management to create an org chart in Microsoft
Project. Is this possible? I have entered the upper management in as
resources, but how would I tie them together and make a typical org chart.
Does this program do this or should I suggest another software program such
as Visio or PowerPoint?

Unless you are creating a Resource Breakdown Structure (RBS) using a custom
enterprise field I would suggest Viso for an org chart.

Thank you. That's what I was thinking. I wanted to get some input from
others. I thought maybe I missed something. I will go talk to him again to
clarify why he wants it in Project.

I went and talked with him as to why he wanted it in Project. He told me
then that it didn't matter what program it was in. He said whichever is the
best. So, it will go into Visio. Now to get it installed on my computer.
Thanks for your help.
