In a report that contains
extensive data, how can action-items be quickly
highlighted and addressed?
Indicator symbols are a great
method for determined, at-a-glance, which
project items need attention.
Here are a few tips on using
indicator symbols:

-
Use distinct shapes and colors to clearly
separate one indicator from another
-
Rely on the indicator’s shape, not color, when
printing to black & white
-
Clearly define the indicators in a legend
-
Use logical symbols, such as check-marks for
completed activities
-
Display “pie fills” to show percent complete
