I would like to show the total number of FTE's of the Direct Reports of a position in an icon on top of the shape.
Until now I am only able to show the number of direct reports. That is not sufficient as there can be more fte in a box.

Hi ​@nicolettevdK 

To view the total FTE of direct reports for a position in Lucidchart, rather than just the number of direct reports, you can utilize Lucidchart's formula capabilities within org charts.

  • This requires your data to include an FTE field for each position. By using formulas like =SUM(CHILDREN."FTE"), you can calculate the total FTEs of direct reports for a specific position.
  • To include all downstream FTEs, not just direct reports, simply use the formula =SUM(DOWNSTREAMDEEP."FTE").

Hope this helps - Happy to help further!!
Thank you very much and have a great one!
Warm regards

Good afternoon,

 

Thanks for you response and help. Using the downstreamdeep formula works, but when I try to use the children the icon disappears.

Hi ​@nicolettevdK

Thank you for the reply! To clarify, does the icon disappear when both rules are applied or just the if =SUM(CHILDREN."FTE") is applied?

@Kelsey Gaag in both instances.
