Scheduling Chart Program

The Scheduling Chart Program (S-Chart) uses simple menu choices to produce high quality Gantt type scheduling and production time-line charts with minimal data entry requirements. The software produces high quality charts (20, 40, and 80 day options) in 10-20 minutes including start up, data entry, and printing. Reprints take less than one minute.
Some of the more significant features are as follows:
- speed and ease of use with menu driven selections from start to finish
- storage and catalogs of all data sets for rapid access and manipulation
- compact program size to permit storage of dozens of data sets on the program disc
- creation of ASCII text files of graphs for rapid printing
The final product of the plot routine is an extended ASCII character file which shows the events scheduled and actual work dates. This file may be printed from the program, from DOS, or imported to a word processor for customizing.
S-Chart is not intended to take the place of commercial scheduling/project management software. However, it is a simple, somewhat limited Gantt chart plotter and scheduling tracking program with an emphasis on straightforward data entry. There is no complex relationship building between the scheduled events. Dates are entered as dates, not as algebraic functions.
S-CHART carries the NASA case number MFS-29531. It was originally released as part of the COSMIC collection.
