Multi level hierarchy in Gantt chart by microsoft corporation

Hello everyone,

I have a requirement of three levels of hierarchy in Gantt chart by microsoft corporation. Like for example Function-Department in first level, worflows in second level, and sub workflows in third level . I can just see parent task as of now. Is there any workaround for this?

  • The Microsoft Gantt visual does not support more than 2 hierarchy levels. Other alternative for you could be:

     

    1) Use a Matrix + Gantt workaround

    • Use a Matrix visual for:

      • Department

      • Workflow

      • Sub-workflow

    • Use conditional formatting or bars (via measures) to simulate timelines

     

    2) Use a custom Gantt visual (recommended if hierarchy is critical)

    Some custom visuals support deeper hierarchies, for example:

    • xViz Gantt

    • MAQ Gantt

    • Other AppSource Gantt visuals
