The Earned Value Management Macros

%EVG_WBS_CHART

This macro is used to generate a Work Breakdown Structure chart. The parameters can be used to control the data that appears within the boxes of the display.

%EVG_WBS_CHART ( parameters ) ;

Required Parameters

ACTIVITY=variable

specifies the activity variable in the STRUCTURE= data set.

PROJECT=variable

specifies the STRUCTURE= data set variable that identifies the project to which the current task belongs.

STRUCTURE=SAS-data-set

identifies the data set that defines the Work Breakdown Structure.

Optional Parameters

DEFID=Y or otherwise

specifies whether or not to include the default identification variables that are present in the STRUCTURE= data set in the boxes of the display. Default variable names are: E_START, E_FINISH, L_START, L_FINISH, S_START, S_FINISH, A_START, A_FINISH, T_FLOAT, and F_FLOAT. The default value for the DEFID= parameter is Y, meaning the default variables are displayed. (See the NODEFID option of the ACTNET statement of the NETDRAW procedure ( SAS/OR User's Guide: Project Management, Chapter 5) for more details.)

ID=variable list

specifies the STRUCTURE= data set variables that appear in the boxes of the display.

REVERSEY=Y or otherwise

specifies whether or not to reverse the order in which the output pages appear. The default value is Y, which orders the pages from top to bottom. (See the REVERSEY option of the ACTNET statement of the NETDRAW procedure ( SAS/OR User's Guide: Project Management, Chapter 5) for more details.)

ROTATE=Y or otherwise

specifies whether or not to rotate the display by 90 degrees. The default value is Y, which performs the rotation. (See the ROTATE option of the ACTNET statement of the NETDRAW procedure ( SAS/OR User's Guide: Project Management, Chapter 5) for more details.)

ROTATETEXT=Y or otherwise

specifies whether or not to rotate the text that appears within the boxes of the display by 90 degrees. The default value is Y, which rotates the text. (See the ROTATETEXT option of the ACTNET statement of the NETDRAW procedure ( SAS/OR User's Guide: Project Management, Chapter 5) for more details.)

VPAGES=integer

specifies the number of vertical pages to produce. The default value is 1. (See the VPAGES= parameter of the ACTNET statement of the NETDRAW procedure ( SAS/OR User's Guide: Project Management, Chapter 5) for more details.)
