Hi team , I want to create a snake diagram for my project schedule. This is a diagram showing Cumulative duration on the Y axis and Critical Path Milestone Number on the X axis. It plots the Actual Time to completion for each milestone vs Schedules Time to Completion for the same . It's an excellent way to visualize schedule health (deviation of Actual vs. baseline completion dates for milestones) but for some reason I cannot find a way to create such a view in MS Project. Can somebody help? Prob I am missing something obvious here :D Saving Changes...
I have MSP Professional 2019 (not the latest version) and I don't believe there's a built-in report for this. However, you could likely either create it as a new custom report or worst case use the Visual Reports capability to export the raw data for milestone actual finish date vs baseline finish date to MS Excel and subtract the project start date from those to be able to generate the chart.

Years ago, I also used very near to similar with excel.

not sure this helps for your problem, but maybe line of balance / LOB (or linear scheduling) is also a way, used mainly in construction to track schedule vs output.
There are tools supporting LOB, for example spiderproject.com or trimble.
