Overview
Use this portlet to quickly view the status of projects and review its milestones.
The table lists projects that meet the portfolio, project code value, or project filter criteria specified in the Filter by field in the dashboard. In the table, you can expand the project rows to display a list of each project's start and finish milestone activities. You can filter the milestones that display in the portlet by selecting an activity code filter.
The Gantt chart displays a bar for each project, which represents the span between the Project Planned Start and Scheduled Finish dates of the project. Each project bar indicates current progress, and remaining effort. When you expand a project row in the table to display the project milestone activities, the Gantt chart shows milestone icons for each start and finish milestone activity in the project, and baseline milestones for each start and finish milestone in the baseline if one has been applied to the project.
