The Earned Value Management Macros
This macro is used to produce a Gantt chart of the planned and revised schedule, along with selected earned value metrics
for each task.
%EVG_GANTT_CHART ( parameters ) ;
Note: %EVG_GANTT_CHART requires output from %EVA_METRICS.
-
ACTIVITY=
variable
-
specifies the activity variable in the PLANSCHED= and REVISESCHED= data sets.
-
FINISH=
variable
-
specifies the finish date or datetime variable in the PLANSCHED= and REVISESCHED= data sets.
-
PLANSCHED=
SAS-data-set
-
identifies the data set containing the planned schedule.
-
REVISESCHED=
SAS-data-set
-
identifies the data set that contains the updated schedule.
-
START=
variable
-
specifies the start date or datetime variable in the PLANSCHED= and REVISESCHED= data sets.
-
CHART=
SAS-data-set
-
specifies the name of the output data set. This is an internal data set that is used as input to the GANTT procedure. The
default data set name is CHART.
-
DURATION=
variable
-
specifies a duration variable in the PLANSCHED= or REVISESCHED= data set. The specified variable in the REVISESCHED= data
set is used if the variable is present in both data sets. This variable is used only for differentiating milestones from single-day
tasks.
-
HEIGHT=
h
-
specifies a height factor for all text in PROC GANTT. (See the HEIGHT= option for the CHART statement of PROC GANTT (Chapter 8) for more details.)
-
HPAGES=
h
-
specifies that the Gantt chart is to be produced using h horizontal pages. (See the HPAGES= option for the CHART statement of PROC GANTT (Chapter 8) for more details.)
-
VPAGES=
v
-
specifies that the Gantt chart is to be produced using v vertical pages. (See the VPAGES= option for the CHART statement of PROC GANTT (Chapter 8) for more details.)
-
ID=
variable(s)
-
specifies a space-delimited list of the variables from the TASKS= data set to be included in the chart. The choices are: WBS, PV, EV, AC, CV, CVP, SV, SVP, CPI, and SPI. The default value is “CV SV”.
-
SCALE=
scale
-
specifies the relative size adjustment of the data columns and chart. (See the SCALE= option for the CHART statement of PROC
GANTT (Chapter 8) for more details.)
-
TASKMETRICS=
SAS-data-set
-
specifies the name of the output data set from the %EVA_TASK_METRICS macro. The default data set name is TASKMETS.
-
TIMENOW=
time
-
specifies the date (’ddmmmyy’d) or datetime (’ddmmmyy:hh:mm:ss’dt) of the updated schedule and costs. The default value is
today’s date, unless the macro variable _TIMENOW_ has been set, in which case the default is the latter. A vertical line and label indicate the value.
Table 11.9 summarizes the parameters used for managing input and output data sets in the %EVG_GANTT_CHART macro.
