Loading Indicators

Loading Indicators provide facility for you to nominate various colours that represent the amount of Load (or Overload).  These colours will be used in the Resource Loading Board screen to provide an instant recognition of any potential problem areas.   As an example of how this works assume that the following records have been created

Loading Name        Percentage        Indicator Colour

IND-1                80                Yellow

IND-2                90                Orange

IND-3                100                Red

If the actual Load was 75% then the cell will not be filled with colour

If the actual Load was 95% then the cell will be filled with Orange colour

If the actual Load was 100% then the cell will be filled with Red colour
