Key module · Tasks and Timeline

Plan every install on a timeline the whole team can see

Tasks and Timeline gives each project a Gantt chart of tasks, milestones and goals. Start from a default UK installation timeline in one click, then edit that template to match the way your team works.

What it does

Six things Tasks and Timeline does for every install

Gantt timeline

Tasks, milestones and goals on one chart per project.

Default UK timeline

Thirteen steps from site survey and DNO application to MCS certificate and customer handover.

Seed in one click

Stamp the default timeline onto any project, with dates counted from that day.

Progress from the chart

Click a bar to update its progress; the overview shows tasks done.

Milestones and goals

Flag key dates as milestones, and record what the project has to achieve as goals.

Your template

Rename tasks, change day offsets, set flags and reorder in Settings.

Default UK timeline

A standard install plan, set up once

The default timeline covers a UK commercial install from site survey, DNO application and MCS checks to commissioning, SEG application and customer handover. Edit it in Settings and every project seeded afterwards starts from your version.

  • Rename tasks and change start and end days
  • Flag milestones and goals
  • Reorder by dragging; reset to the built-in default at any time

Track progress

See what is done, what is next and what is late

Every task, milestone and goal sits in a list beside the chart, with its dates, status and progress. Filter to tasks, milestones or goals, and the project overview shows how many tasks are done.

  • Filter by tasks, milestones or goals
  • Start, end, status and progress for each item
  • Install progress shown on the project overview

Goals and milestones

Keep the outcome in view, not just the task list

Milestones mark the dates that matter, such as the MCS certificate and customer handover. Project goals capture what the project has to achieve, so the team works towards the result as well as the next task.

  • Milestones marked on the timeline
  • Project goals with their own list
  • Add tasks, milestones and goals at any time

  4. Hand over

Questions about Tasks and Timeline

Can we change the default timeline?

Yes. In Settings you can rename tasks, change start and end days, flag milestones and goals, reorder rows or reset to the built-in default.

Do we have to use the default timeline?

No. You can add tasks, milestones and goals to a project yourself, with or without seeding the default first.

How is progress updated?

Click a bar on the Gantt timeline to update its progress. The project overview shows how many tasks are done.

What is the difference between a milestone and a goal?

A milestone is a key date on the timeline, such as the MCS certificate. A goal is a high-level objective for the project.

When do the dates start?

Day offsets count from the moment the timeline is seeded on the project.
