Checking the Project Schedule

Project Schedule UI5 Application

Besides the graphical planning board, SAP Project System (PS) offers a new SAP UI5 app for checking the project schedule of projects. With this app, you can view the hierarchy of the project objects and monitor their timelines. The chart area of the screen allows you to display different set of dates in a Gantt representation while displaying the project tree with detailed information in the table area.

The application offers the following key features:

  • Display the project tree in the table view with a configurable set of attributes

  • Specify the default hierarchy level to be exploded on opening a project

  • Choose and display date information in the chart area, such as BasicActual, and Forecast dates

  • Display relationships within networks or plant maintenance orders

  • Open the side panel with detailed information about the selected object

  • Apply custom coloring for shapes in the Gantt chart area (using the UI Theme Designer)

  • Navigate to relevant object pages and other applications

  • Save the preferred configuration and use it for the next run

Project Network Graph

Alternatively to the network graphic overview in the Project Builder you can use this app to display network activities and their relationships as an interactive graph. The app allows you to identify critical activities, their dependencies, confirmation status, and display detailed information for selected objects.
