When I create a report, I get a sum of everything. What would be nice is that indeed, everything is computed, but displayed as a percentage of the total. Since I have no clue how clock reports are implemented, I do not know if what I ask is even remotely possible.

Total : 100%

Entry 1 : 25%
Entry 2 : 10 %
Entry 2 : 15 %

Entry 1 : 30 %
Entry 2 : 10 %
Entry 2 : 10 %
Entry 2 : 10 %

Etc.

I hope this example is enough to understand (while thinking about it, a combination of total time & percentages would be nice also).

I am aware that, of course, first of all a total is needed, and that the percentages can only be computed afterwards. 

Regards,

Jurgen
