Target threshold colors attribute

If the target_field attribute is configured, a second attribute called target_threshold_colors enables an administrator to define additional parameters.

The parameters are:

• Different thresholds at which the colored bar should change color
• A specific color for each threshold

The format of this attribute's value is number1:color1;number2:color2 and so on. Use this attribute to apply warning colors to completion percentages that are lower than target percentages. These values are defined as the percentage of target accomplished. For example, a value of 0:red;50:yellow;90:green displays a red bar if the progress to target pecentage is between 0-49. If the percent of target is between 50 and 89, the color is yellow. Percent of target 90 and above displays in green. Completion percentages that exceed target percentages also display in green. Order the color attributes from the smallest percentage to the largest.

If you do not specify a target_field, then a target of 100 is used, allowing you to use the color thresholds with a single field value.

target_field=percent_complete_target,target_threshold_colors=0:tomato;50:khaki;90:lightgreen

The following table lists examples of percent of target calculation using the colors defined above.

표 1. Target threshold colors attribute

Target percent	Percent field value	Percent of target calculation	Color
100	40	40%	tomato
65	59	90.7%	lightgreen
15	10	66.7%	khaki

Add a target field attribute

Add an optional attribute (target_field) to a percent complete field to compare the actual completion percentage of a task or project with a target percentage in a different decimal field that specifies where the task should be at this point.
