Milestones Portlet

This portlet includes the following fields:

Schedule

Stoplight Colors:

• White. The milestone data is undefined.
• Green. The milestone is on schedule.
• Yellow. The milestone is not yet late. But the due date is less than or equal to three days from the current date.
• Red. The milestone is late by one or more days.

Project

Milestone

Displays the name of the milestone. Click the milestone link to open the task properties page and edit the milestone.

Due Date

Displays the due date for the milestone to be complete. The due date is the baseline finish date for the milestone. If no baseline exists, is the finish date of the milestone.

Days Late

Displays the number of days past the baseline due date for the milestone. If the milestone is not late, a negative number displays indicating the number of days until the due date. For example, a negative five implies that five days are left before the task becomes due.
