The calculation of Work, Duration, and Units

The calculation of Work, Duration, and Units 1 day Duration = 8 hours Work /100% Units Units= Units are the percentage of a resource’s workday For example, if you want Joe to work half-time on a task, you would assign him at 50 percent Units. If a resource’s workday is eight hours and he or she is assigned to work on a task at 100% Units (for eight hours of work), then the Duration is eight hours (one day by default).

SQL Sentry Plan Explorer is a FREE tool which builds upon the graphical plan view in SSMS to make query plan analysis more efficient. It contains many of the plan analysis features introduced in SQL Sentry v6, however, the lightweight tool does not require a collection service or database. Features There are several ways to load a plan: * In SSMS, right-click a graphical plan and select “Show Execution Plan XML”, then copy and paste the plan XML into the Plan Explorer. It doesn’t matter which pane is active, the clipboard handler is global and will auto-detect the plan XML. * Save an execution plan from SSMS to a .sqlplan file, then open the file using the Open toolbar button, File->Open menu, or Ctrl + O. Raw plan XML files and .QueryAnalysis files (our own proprietary format) are also supported. * Right-click an existing .sqlplan file in Windows Explorer and select “Open with -> SQL Sentry Plan Explorer”. * Drag-and-drop a plan file onto the application. * R
