Merlin Project Express - Gantt 4+

New calculated fields:
The following new fields are available as columns for the work-breakdown view, the assignments view and the resources view:

- Expected Work Variance: Contains the net difference between Expected Work and Planned Work. A positive value means more work compared to the plan.
- Expected Duration Variance: Contains the net difference between Expected Duration and Planned Duration. A positive value means a longer duration compared to the plan.
- Expected Start Variance: Contains the net duration between Planned Start and Expected Start. A positive value means a delay in the start.
- Expected End Variance: Contains the net duration between Planned End and Expected end. A positive value means a delay at the end.
- Expected Cost Variance: The difference between Expected Costs and Planned Costs. A positive value means increased costs compared to the plan.


More flexibility in the utilization views:
In the assignments view, you can now also display selected fields of the associated activities in rows for assignments. The following new columns are available for this purpose:

- Code (Activity)
- Notes (Activity)
- # (Activity)

You can also display the corresponding fields of the assigned resources in the work-breakdown view. The columns are marked with the suffix "(Resource)".


More overview in the work breakdown view:
- Customize the display of assigned resources via the context menu of the resource column. With the new "Show content" option, you can now select whether column content is only displayed on the activities or also on activity groups.


Changes:
