Selecting Milestone Dates for a Project Type

The Firm Milestone Dates window allows you to assign milestone dates to a project type. The window displays available milestone date selections that have been entered in Managing Milestone Dates for a Project Type and have not yet been assigned to a project type.

When you assign milestone dates to a project type, they are available for assignment to any templates and projects created from the project type.

To assign milestone dates to a type, do the following:

  1. Do one of the following to open the Types list:

    • In Dashboard. Click Application Links, and then click Configuration > Project types under Workstream.
    • In Workstream. On the Manage ribbon, click Types.
  2. Select a type in the grid and click in the button bar, or right-click and select Open from the menu to display the Project Type profile.
  3. Click Milestone Dates on the navigation panel and then click Firm Milestone Dates on the button bar, or right-click the grid and select Firm Milestone Dates from the menu. The window that displays contains two grids:
    • The Available (top) grid contains milestone dates that can be assigned to the type.
    • The Selected (bottom) grid lists the milestone dates that have already been selected for assignment to the type, if any.
  4. Do any of the following, as necessary:
