Plan: Chargeability Report
Date: 2026-03-13 Status: Draft Depends on: Country/SAH, OrgUnit hierarchy, Utilization Categories, Client/WBS, Resource extensions
Problem
The bi-weekly chargeability report is currently produced in Excel. Planarchy needs a live reporting section in the app that updates in real-time as assignments, resources, and SAH change. The report is not a static file — it is an interactive page that can be exported as Excel or PDF on demand.
Core requirements:
- Live FTE-weighted chargeability percentages grouped by org unit hierarchy
- Historical actuals (SAP-imported or tracked) alongside forward forecasts
- Region filtering (GER only vs ALL resource types)
- Target vs actual comparison per management level and chapter
- Business Development % as a separate metric
- Change tracking (delta vs previous forecast snapshot)
- Excel and PDF export of the current view
Report Structure (from Excel)
The report screenshot shows this layout:
Chg Report Content Prod. // - All
Status as of: {date}
| Region | Org Unit (L6) | Chapter (L7) | Ressource Type | FTE | Target ACN | tracked Chg % (SAP) | predicted Chg % (forecast months) |
Row Hierarchy
GER section (Production Studios only):
GER | Content Production | Content Production | Total | FTE | Target | Jan | Feb | Mar | Apr | ...
GER | CGI Content | Art Direction | | FTE | Target | ... |
GER | CGI Content | Capability Dev | | FTE | Target | ... |
GER | CGI Content | CGI Production | | FTE | Target | ... |
GER | CGI Content | Product Data Mgmt | | FTE | Target | ... |
GER | CGI Content | Program/Delivery | | FTE | Target | ... |
GER | CGI Content | CGI Content | Total | FTE | Target | ... | ← L6 subtotal
GER | CGI Technology | CGI Development | | FTE | Target | ... |
GER | CGI Technology | IT Development | | FTE | Target | ... |
GER | CGI Technology | CGI Technology | Total | FTE | Target | ... |
... (Creative Content Production, VFX)
GER | Content Prod. | Total | Chg Germany | FTE | Target | ... | ← grand total
GER | Content Prod. | Total | BD Germany | | | ... | ← BD% row
PLUS row: additional CHG for Near&Offshore + ACN FTEs
ALL row: combined total
Change tracking: previous forecast date + delta rows
Column Structure
| Column Group | Type | Source |
|---|---|---|
| FTE | number | Sum of resource FTE for the group |
| Target ACN | % | Official target per management level, FTE-weighted |
| Historical months (SAP) | tracked Chg % | Imported actual chargeability from SAP/period data |
| Forecast months | predicted Chg % | FTE-weighted average of individual resource forecasts |
Key Formulas
FTE per chapter:
SUM(resource.fte) WHERE resource.orgUnit.level7 = chapter
AND resource.resourceType = filter
Chargeability per chapter (forecast):
SUM(resource.fte * resource.forecastChargeability[month])
/ SUM(resource.fte)
This is an FTE-weighted average.
Target per chapter:
SUM(resource.fte * resource.managementLevel.targetPercentage)
/ SUM(resource.fte)
Unassigned hours (implicit):
SAH - sum(all categorized hours)
BD% (Germany):
SUM(resource.fte * resource.bdPercentage[month])
/ SUM(resource.fte)
Data Requirements
What Planarchy needs to have (per resource, per month)
| Data Point | Source | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| FTE | Resource.fte | May vary monthly |
| Org Unit (L5/L6/L7) | Resource.orgUnit + tree | Drives row grouping |
| Country / Metro City | Resource.country | Drives region filter (GER vs ALL) |
| Resource Type | Derived or stored | Production Studios / Near&Offshore / Accenture |
| Management Level | Resource.managementLevel | Drives target % |
| Target % | ManagementLevel.targetPercentage | Official chargeability target |
| Forecast Chargeability | Derived from assignments | Hours assigned to Chg projects / SAH |
| Forecast BD% | Derived from assignments | Hours assigned to BD projects / SAH |
| Tracked Chargeability | Imported from SAP or tracked in-app | Actual period data |
Forecast Chargeability Derivation
This is the key insight: predicted chargeability can be derived from what Planarchy already knows:
forecastChg(resource, month) =
sum(assignment.hoursPerDay * workingDays)
WHERE assignment.project.utilizationCategory = 'Chg'
AND assignment overlaps month
/ SAH(resource, month)
Similarly for BD, MD&I, etc. — each utilization category's hours divided by SAH.
This means the chargeability report is a query over existing assignments + SAH, not a separate data entry.
Tracked (Actual) Chargeability
For historical data, two options:
- Import from SAP: bulk import of period data (P-1, P-2, etc.) as snapshots
- Track in-app: if Planarchy becomes the system of record for time tracking
Recommendation: Start with SAP import. Add a ChargeabilitySnapshot model for imported actuals.
model ChargeabilitySnapshot {
id String @id @default(cuid())
periodDate DateTime // e.g. 2026-02-28
periodType String // "PTD" or "MTD"
orgUnitId String // L7 chapter
resourceType String? // filter dimension
fte Float
chargeability Float // 0.0 to 1.0
bdPercentage Float?
mdiPercentage Float?
moPercentage Float?
recoveryRate Float?
importedAt DateTime @default(now())
@@unique([periodDate, periodType, orgUnitId, resourceType])
}

UI
Live Reporting Section (/reports/chargeability)
This is an interactive, live-updating page — not a static export. Data refreshes whenever assignments, resource attributes, or SAH inputs change.
Layout:
- Header: title, status date (auto = now), region toggle (GER / ALL)
- Filter bar: resource type toggles (Production Studios / Accenture / Near&Offshore), date range (which months to display)
- Main table: matching the Excel screenshot structure (see Row Hierarchy above)
- Color coding: green background = actual months (SAP data), blue = current month, white = forecast months
- Subtotal rows: bold, darker background
- BD% row: bottom of GER section
- Change tracking section: collapsible, shows delta vs a selectable previous snapshot date
- Sticky first columns (Region, Org Unit, Chapter, Resource Type, FTE, Target) with horizontal scroll for months
Interactivity:
- Click on a chapter row → drill down to individual resources in that chapter
- Click on a resource → navigate to resource detail page
- Click on a cell → tooltip showing the contributing assignments and their hours
- Compare mode: select two snapshot dates and see a side-by-side delta view
Real-time updates:
- SSE integration: report subscribes to assignment/resource change events
- When an assignment is created/modified/deleted, affected rows recalculate
- Debounced refresh (not per-keystroke, but within seconds of a change)
Export (on demand)
Export buttons in the page header:
Excel export:
- Matches the current Excel report format for stakeholder familiarity
- Includes all visible rows and columns based on current filter state
- Separate sheets for GER and ALL views
- Formulas preserved where possible (e.g. subtotals as SUM formulas)
- Uses the existing PDF/Excel export infrastructure from Phase 6
PDF export:
- Landscape layout matching the on-screen table
- Includes header with status date and active filters
- Page breaks per L6 section
- Color coding preserved
Dependencies
All other plans must land first:
- Country/SAH — provides available hours denominator
- OrgUnit hierarchy — provides row grouping
- Utilization Categories — provides hour bucketing (Chg, BD, etc.)
- Client/WBS — provides project attribution
- Resource extensions — provides management level, resource type, client unit
- Management Level model — provides target percentages
Phased Delivery
