The Schedule module helps you visualise and manage project timelines using multiple view options. Use these features to track progress, customise displays for different stakeholders, and create focused reports for clients and project teams.
Before you start
Your project schedule must be created and populated with activities.
Choose your visualisation
- Go to your project and navigate to the Schedule Module.
- Choose a view option.
| View | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Activities | List view of all scheduled tasks |
| Gantt | Traditional Gantt chart display |
| Worm | Visualise timelines |
| Phases | High-level phase overview |
Customise your schedule display
Configure Activities, Gantt, and Phases

Troubleshooting and FAQs
What if icons aren't appearing in my schedule filters?
Ensure you've saved the icon assignment and refresh the dashboard view. Icons may take a moment to update across all visualisations.
Why isn't my schedule report generating automatically?
Verify your project schedule contains saved activities before creating the report. Empty schedules won't generate meaningful reports.
What if dashboard tiles show "No data available"?
Check that your schedule contains activities and review filter settings to ensure they're not excluding all data. Reset filters if necessary.
