how create a table to spread the resource allocation

Hello everyone!

 

I have a table like this (from our project management system):

 

Project | Resource | Task | Expected start | Expected end | Expected effort | Actual Jan | Actual Feb | ........ | Actual Dec

 

From this table I would like to get a table like this:

 

Project | Resource | Task | Exp Jan | Exp Feb | ........ | Exp Dec

 

Where Exp Jan is the part of the effort expected for the month of January obtained by dividing Expected effort for the number of months between the Expected start and Expected end.

 

How could I get this?

Thanks for your collaboration!

      ChandeepChhabra , you are right.
      Providing sample data my problem is more understandable.

      My start table is like this:

      Project

      Resource

      Task

      Expected start

      Expected end

      Expected effort

      where Expected is the part of the effort expected for the month, obtained by dividing Expected effort for the number of months between the Expected start and Expected end.

      In this way I could get a graph like this:

      How can I get the table I want?

      Thank you for your cooperation
