    Learn how to compare Estimated Time vs Actual Time in a quick and simple Time Line (Gantt Chart) in Excel.
    In a previous video I showed how to create a quick and simple Time Line (Gantt Chart) in Excel and here is the link to that video: • TECH-005 - Create a qu...
    In this video I continued where I left off in the previous one, and I used the IF formula, the AND formula, as well as 'Greater Than' and 'Less Than' conditions to create the Actual Time Line (Gantt Chart) in your spreadsheet. I also used Conditional Formatting to enhance the looks of the Time Line.
    I hope this concept is something you can use in your daily routine so you get more with less effort.

    Thanks a lot for this video. SUPER USEFUL. One follow up Question though. Is it possible to highlight the amount a task slips in a different color(say RED) to flag the amount of delay in days ?, especially in the ACTUAL row. Sounds like this might need a slightly more complicated conditional formatting.

    Hello. Thanks for the video. Do you have something similar but with tasks which are taking few hours, not days? I want to prepare something for my job, taking in consideration that i am working 8h/day and consider this 8h one day. Did you got my point? I want to track all my tasks and by the end of the month to see if I am doing my job better than the estimation. Let's say I estimate one task for 5h and i will finish in 4h, then I have cost saving for 1h. Thank you for your response!

    Hello sir, thanks for sharing your knowledge, but it seems the formula you use in the dates ( start and end dates) need to be rectified, example in ID#1, Demolition duration is 4, but when you count the timeline it has 5 days, and so on ... you need to add 1 in start date and deduct 1 in your end date.
