Project Management

Phases

Phases are the editable timeline blocks inside the planner.

Phases

Phases are range-based planner items in the planner hierarchy:

  1. Project
  2. Work order
  3. Phase or milestone

Phases store editable start and end dates. Milestones store one scheduled datetime. Project and work-order bars are computed from both.
