Add tasks and milestones

There are 3 ways to add a new task or milestone:

Click on Add Task or Add Milestone.
Click on the + button on the top header and select add task or add milestone.
Click on the + button next to an existing task or milestone and select add task or add milestone. Using this route will insert the new item into the group below the existing task or milestone selected. The group can be toggled between open and closed by clicking on [+] / [-].

Remember

The positioning of all tasks and milestones in the Gantt will always be based on the end date.

Update tasks and milestones

Double-click on the task or milestone icon in the Gantt to open and edit the online form for that item.

The percentage complete status of a task or milestone can be updated directly on the Gantt. Hover your cursor over the item to reveal a small triangle icon. This can be dragged left to right to increase the percentage.
