Select Projects to Include on the Upcoming Milestones Dashpart

The Upcoming Milestones dashpart displayed in the Dashboard area presents a history of your milestones from the current time forward, based on your filtered projects. You can view more detail for a milestone by clicking the point on the timeline.

Vantagepoint displays up to 7 milestones on the timeline, beginning with the most current milestone. Use the paging arrows at either end of the milestone chart to move to previous or next milestones across the timeline. Use Search filters to refine which projects are included on the timeline.

To select projects to include in the milestone timeline:

  1. In the Navigation pane, select My Stuff > Dashboards.
  2. On the Dashboard form, open a dashboard with an Upcoming Milestones dashpart.
  3. On the Upcoming Milestones dashpart, click to the right of Upcoming Milestones to display the search filter list.
  4. Select one of the following filter options:
    • Select a standard filter, such as All, Active, or My Active.
    • Select an existing saved filter.
    • Select Custom to display the Custom Search dialog box.
    Only those milestones associated with the projects included in the search are displayed on the timeline.
  5. Use the previous and next paging arrows to page through both historical and future milestones across the timeline.
  6. Click a point on the milestone timeline to display an info bubble that shows details about a single or multiple milestone(s). Click More... to display a separate browser tab in order to view additional milestone information about the specified milestone’s project.
