Report Calendar Tab

The Reporting Calendar tab is available only if you selected Reporting Calendar on the Options tab of the Date Scale Preferences dialog box.

The reporting calendar feature of Open Plan allows you to look at events within a project with varying degrees of precision. Depending on the reporting calendars you select, the date scale might show weeks for one period, months for another period, and quarters for still another.

The date scale can contain up to 6 reporting calendars. A typical use of multiple reporting calendars would be to have years and quarters displayed above a varying date scale:

Use this tab to indicate the number of axes you want to appear in the date scale. If you are displaying relative dates in one or more lines in the date scale, you can define a starting (reference) date for these labels. If you want to use multiple axes in the date scale, you must specify which axis will control the scaling of the other axes.

For each axis you can define the name of the reporting calendar. You can also define how the labels from the reporting calendar display.
