Milestones

smartsheets1

Hi there!

From what I understand with smartsheets, a milestone must have a start date and 0 duration.

In the attached example, the arrowed tasks take a number of days to complete. However, I want to highlight these tasks as a milestone but also display the time it takes to complete them.

How would I go about doing this?

Thanks!

Hi @smartsheets1 ,

I don't think you can create a multi-day milestone. You can have it fill 1 day by using a duration of ~0. See article below.

You can also add a milestone task (start date with 0 duration) after your highlighted tasks. If you make your tasks presecessors the milestone will move as the schedule changes.

Maybe someone else has a better solution.
