The 'Grid and Gantt' view shows the outline view of the WBS and the Gantt chart side-by-side.
- Open the project management schedule
- Click 'Schedule' on the top
- Choose 'Master schedule' if you are the general contractor
- Choose 'Schedule' if you are a subcontractor
The 'Schedule' interface opens in the 'Grid' view by default.
- Choose 'Grid and Gantt' from the drop-down on the top left
Use the date filters to view the tasks in the Gantt chart:
An example is shown below:
See the previous section Grid View for descriptions of the filters and columns in the table.
- Use the filter at the top left to choose between the day, weekly, or monthly view for the Gantt chart
The Gantt chart also allows you to set and modify the start and end dates of the items by simple drag and drop actions.
- You can also set the start and end dates for tasks in the Gantt view. Just drag and drop the bar representing an item near the required date range and drag the left and right edges of the bar to particular dates as required.
- You can directly modify the dates only for last-level child tasks, that is, the items that do not have any children. The dates for the parent tasks adjust automatically, depending on the change in the children's tasks.
- The start and end dates are shifted for the dependent tasks based on changes in the predecessor tasks and their dependency relationship.
- You cannot modify dates for published tasks.
