Milestones Portlet
Project milestones are used to mark a point in your project, usually completion of a set of tasks or as a project health check to determine if you are on schedule.
The following screenshot shown the Milestones portlet and the columns included in the table:
The Milestones portlet on the Project 360 Dashboard supports the display of collapsible parent tasks and subordinate tasks.
A parent task is a record that only tracks cumulative information about subordinate tasks that are required to complete a project. For more information about organizing project tasks, read Organizing Tasks.
By default, milestones are sorted by their end date. You can also sort the milestones by names alphabetically by clicking the Name column header.
