Module Walkthrough

Project Schedule

Use scheduling to manage tasks, dependencies, responsible parties, baseline snapshots, lookaheads, PDF exports, and schedule health.

Product Proof

Screens tied to the workflow

Project schedule grid and Gantt
The schedule view supports grid, Gantt, table, board, timeline, calendar, lookahead, baseline, health, critical path, and PDF/print controls.

Process

How the work moves through the module

1

Build the task plan

Create tasks with start/end dates, duration, responsible party, status, percent complete, notes, and WBS order.

2

Connect dependencies

Link predecessor and successor tasks, manage lag, recompute CPM, and keep critical path visible.

3

Use lookahead and baseline controls

Generate field lookaheads, lock baseline snapshots, compare movement, and export schedule views for coordination.

Operating Rhythm

How the workflow stays moving

Where it lives

  • This module is part of the project work page, so records stay tied to the job, customer, team, files, schedule, and financial context.
  • The project navigation is the customer clue: users do not hunt for this work in a separate app. They open the project and choose the correct tab.

What a contractor can do

  • Create and patch tasks
  • Manage dependencies
  • Reorder or delete tasks
  • Assign responsible entities
  • Lock baselines
  • Recompute CPM
  • Export PDFs
  • Generate lookaheads
  • Create baseline snapshots
  • Review schedule health
