**Background:** Our budget document currently looks at all incoming funds and divide these as staff/non-staff costs. Based on the average salary cost this allows us to estimate how many work hours this corresponds to and in the extension how many FTEs this corresponds to. What it doesn't take into account is the duration of each project (e.g. a project covering 3 FTEs but which starts in July is actually 6 FTEs for that period only). The Burnchart also does not take this into account since it only concerns itself with cashflow (not when the corresponding work needs to be done). **Task:** Investigate how the staff costs (worktime) can be visualised on a timeline. This should include both budgeted staff costs in Projects and in Operational costs. If this is not suitable in the actual Budget document then a separate document may be a viable solution.
