Milestones

Milestones are important checkpoints that signify the completion of key tasks or transitions between project phases. Unlike regular tasks, they focus on major events, decisions, or achievements that indicate progress. Milestones help you monitor overall project status, set clear targets, keep stakeholders updated, and identify potential delays early.

To create a milestone, first create a task. Then, in the detail panel, click the More Options icon and select Turn into a milestone. The task’s status circle will change to a diamond-shaped icon. To revert a milestone back to a regular task, simply repeat the same steps.

Tip: Press Ctrl + Alt + M (or Ctrl + ⌥ + M for Mac) on your keyboard to turn a task into a milestone without using the mouse.

In Timeline and Calendar views, milestones are easily identifiable by the diamond-shaped icon, making it simple to track key events at a glance.
