Systems, methods, and other embodiments for providing management of activities of a project plan associated with a computer application are described. In one embodiment, a calendar view of an activity is edited to change a number of calendar time units over which the activity is to be performed. In response to updating the calendar view of the activity, resource data structures are updated for multiple resources assigned to the activity. The resource data structures are updated to reflect the change in the number of calendar time units for each assigned resource. For each assigned resource, the number of calendar time units corresponds to a period of time for which the resource is assigned to the activity.

System and method for changing resource calendars by editing calendar views

A system is provided that visualizes soft constraints among tasks. The system displays a chart within a user interface, where the chart includes a timeline including one or more time units. The system further displays task indicators that correspond to tasks within the timeline of the chart. The system further determines a soft constraint among a first task and a second task of the tasks. The system further displays a soft connector that corresponds to the soft constraint within the timeline of the chart, where the soft connector connects a first task indicator that corresponds to the first task with a second task indicator that corresponds to the second task.

Project chart with soft constraint

Systems, methods, and other embodiments for providing scheduling of activities of a project plan associated with a computer application are described. In one embodiment, a project scheduling tool is configured to calculate a percentage time deviation, between an updated time duration and a planned time duration, for each present activity of a project to form a plurality of percentage time deviations. An arithmetic mean of the plurality of percentage time deviations is calculated and a planned time duration of at least one future activity of the project, related to each present activity, is transformed based on the arithmetic mean.

System and method for intelligent project schedule forecasting

A system is provided that visualizes an allocation of resources. The system displays a chart, where the chart includes a list of tasks and a timeline including time units. The system further displays task indicators within the timeline of the chart, where a task indicator includes task indicator segments, and where an area of a task indicator segment is proportional to a work scope of a resource allocated to a corresponding task. The system further receives a user interaction that includes a movement of the task indicator segment from a first task indicator that corresponds to a first task to a second task indicator that corresponds to a second task. The system further allocates the resource from the first task to the second task. The system further modifies the display of at least one task indicator within the timeline of the chart based on the allocation of the resource.
