Milestones are an easy way to track major accomplishments in your project. They are generally used as an indicator to call out a significant event or key date on your Gantt Chart, such as a project launch, key deliverable, or presentation date.

Milestones are shown as a diamond on Gantt chart

How to turn an action into a milestone

Within the action card, click the More menu > Mark as milestone.

FAQ: 

Q: Can I turn a recurring action into a milestone?

A: Yes, you can!

Q: I've turned my action card into a milestone, but it's not showing up on my Gantt chart. Why is that?

A: Most likely, it's because your action card doesn't have a date entered yet. The milestone's action card must have a due date in order for it to appear on the Gantt chart.

Q: How do milestones stand out in layouts other than Gantt?

A: In Table view, milestones will appear highlighted yellow. In Status, Team, and Label views, the milestone flag will appear on the face of the action card.
