For reporting purposes a split screen view is not always good enough, in such case a Gantt Report that shows resource allocation along with fields of interest may have no match. Scheduling is mostly about logic, volume of work, teams and their production rates, a good report should disclose these parameters and their values. In this case no activity with predecessor means there are no links among the activities.
click the thumbnail and zoom for a better view.
On the other hand table reports are better at showing time distributed data.
Diagrams are also good to show resource usage vs availability.
But sometimes this is not enough to understand how we model changes in availability of resources, here resource production reports will give us the clue. Instead of using fixed dates we used activities to increase or decrease resource availability.
These are just some examples you shall be able to mimic using your software.
Good luck.

if you go to view layouts selet no whne it ask you if you want to save the lapout and look for the canned layout called Resource Overallocation Profile
or view show on bottom resource usage profile and under that data tab at the bottom under Additional Data Options check select limit and check Show Overallocation
on the left you and sleect a particualr resource to see if you are over the limit
You need to use the 'Resource Spreadsheet' view, with the filter set to' all projects'. Since resource avaiability is established across all projects, you cannot see 'limit' when the filter is set to 'open projects only'
