If the project has started prior to the selected period from filters, an arrow head appended to the left-side of the timeframe bar will indicate that it had started before the selected period.

If the project is finishing after the selected period from filters, an arrow head appended to the right-side of the timeframe bar will indicate that it will finish after the selected period.

Performance bar

A bar coloured according to project performance values (i.e. Off track –red, On Track – green, Monitor – Amber) will be displayed to represent the project performance and the respective percentage value.

Project performance bar of ‘Completed’ projects (project % Complete value equals to 100) will be displayed in black.

Performance bar will not be drawn for the projects which are ‘Not Started’ (project % Complete value equals to 0).
