🔸Milestones
Milestones in the Gantt time that help to establish mark the specific key points within the timeline.
Milestones serve multiple purposes, including tracking and monitoring progress, establishing goals and objectives, identifying potential delays, and communicating progress to stakeholders.
Steps to Configure the Milestones:
Type 1 – Multiple Milestone Date columns
Here's an example of a data with 3 columns for Milestone dates
Add the date columns to the Milestone data field
As a result, the three milestones are plotted for every site (leaf level bars)
Type 2 - Date and Milestone Name columns
Here's an example of a data with a column for milestone dates and another for the milestone names.
Add the data to the Milestone and Milestone Name data fields
As a result, the different types of milestones are plotted on the Sites/bars
Please refer to the documentation link below for details on milestone formatting, which allows you to customize the shape, color, and image of each milestone - Milestone Formatting
Type 3 - Milestones from Data
A Milestone from Data is created when the start date and end date are the same.
To Display Milestone from Data, navigate to the Milestone tab of the Advanced Editor, turn on “Allow Milestone from Data.”
"Allow Milestone from Data" is visible only when the milestone field is populated with a milestone column
As a result, Milestones from data will appear in the Gantt chart as shown in the image below:
If the "Allow Milestone from Data" toggle is off, tasks where start = end date will be hidden.
