A Gantt chart showing the timelines of my Portfolio of projects.
Project Budget by Type
Budget vs Actual Cost vs Planned Costs
Probability of Commercial Success by Project

Hi - instead of starting from scratch, I recommend checking the SAP Analytics Content Network at https://www.sapanalytics.cloud/learning/business-content/ - SAP has prebuilt content, including for projects

I have checked the content but do not see an example where there is a view using a Gantt chart view for timelines on different projects. Would you be able to share how to if you have done this before. Thank you.

Hi Atwell,

did you finally manage to get something in SAC?

As far as I've seen, the only Business Content related to SAP PPM for SAC requires to use BW 7.x (not even BW4, cause there aren't the dataflows in the BW4 Business Content).

Regarding the Gantt, as far as I've been through, SAC does not have a specific chart for Gantt. Might exist on other non-official charts, though.

I would be great if you could share your findings at this moment.

Thank you in advance,

Miquel.
