Gantt milestones

Keep track of important events with milestones and customize them according to the specifics of your project.

Milestones indicate significant events or achievements in your project timeline, like a launch date or a delivery deadline.

1. Adding milestones

Assign the milestone field from your dataset to the Gantt fields visual parameter. In the Pivot data window, map the fields to the Milestone bucket. Milestones will be displayed in the Gantt when the fields are assigned.
