yes in my data the 1st column is the main category say suppose
Secretary
the second column is the sub category HR Dept the 3rd column is the
list
of duties performed by the Secretary from HR dept and 4th column is time
required to perform the duty
so there are many such posts and dept with varied duties and times resp.

I agree with Tal. But it partly depends on your data. If you have many
levels and only few time values in each boxplot would not look well.
Maybe
you could check also ?xtabs or ?table and/or R graph gallery

Re: [R] Presentation of data in Graphical format
Hello Sir
I had given a sample of my data, As I cannot disclose whole of my data this
is just a sample given
1st column: Posts (GM, Secretary, AM, Office Boy)
2nd Column: Dept (Finance, HR, ...)
3rd column: Tasks (Open the door, Fix an appointment, Fill the register,
etc.) depending on the post
4th column: Average Time required to do the task
So the sample data would look like
*PostsDeptTask Average time*
Office Boy HR Open the door 00:00:09
Office Boy HR Switch on the lights 00:00:10
Secretary FinanceFix an appointment 00.00.30
. .
. .
. .
in my data the 1st column is the main category say suppose Secretary the
second column is the sub category HR Dept the 3rd column is the list of
duties performed by the Secretary from HR dept and 4th column is time
required to perform the duty
so there are many such posts and dept with varied duties and times resp

Re: [R] Presentation of data in Graphical format
That is not enough information for anyone to suggest a useful plot. For a start: * How many observations do you have? * How many difference posts/departments/tasks? * Are the variables nested or crossed? * Have you successfully parsed the time representation into something R can work with? Is the representation inconsistent as in your example? * What is the purpose of the study? What do you want to find out?

They are put together using several commands in order to build the final picture you see there. For instance, say you like this graph: http://addictedtor.free.fr/graphiques/RGraphGallery.php?graph=145 At the bottom left of the page, you'll find a Source Code section under Requirements.

Fine, we see what your data looks like, but what are you trying to
plot?! What do you want to show people about this data?

Re: [R] Presentation of data in Graphical format
Hello Sir
I have got 150 observations, got 10 posts/ 6 departments/ tasks vary from 5
to 10,
A few of the variables are crossed specially in case of Office boy, where
the tasks are like open the door, put on the lights,
Yes time variable I have used Chron package, so that it works well
My aim for this study is to check the amount of time and its variability
for groups of tasks
Its my project work so need to work this out myself if it doesnt work then I
will have to consult a statistician
Thanks for guiding me to put up the question in more clearer way, I will
sure take care next time

Re: [R] Presentation of data in Graphical format
Well, from what you say it seems to me that you could also use Pareto
charts together with some aggregation of data. But it depends on what you
want to show to your audience. Below is some code which I slightly adapted
form original author.

# pareto. Produces a Pareto plot of effects.
#
# Parameters:
# effects - vector or matrix of effects to plot.
# names - vector of names to label the effects.
# xlab - String to display as the x axis label.
# ylab - String to display as the y axis label.
# perlab - Label for the cumulative percentage label.
# heading - Vector of names for plot heading.
#
pareto - function(effects, names=NULL, xlab=NULL, ylab=Magnitude of
Effect, indicate.percent=TRUE, perlab=Cumulative Percentage,
heading=NULL, trunc.perc=.95, long.names=FALSE,...)

# set up graphics parameters, note: set las=2 for perpendicular
axis.
oldpar - par( mar=c(6, 4, 2, 4) + 0.1 , las=3)

I agree with Tal. But it partly depends on your data. If you have many
levels and only few time values in each boxplot would not look well.
Maybe
you could check also ?xtabs or ?table and/or R graph gallery
http://addictedtor.free.fr/graphiques/ if you find suitable graph.
