Milestone view - Customization & flexibility

[#1]

Would like the ability to customize the milestone view (grouping the ideas of others on the list)

• Include/exclude progress status and % complete
• Filter out some milestones
• Sorting
• Display additional fields (portfolio, custom fields, etc.)
• View actual completion on completed milestones
• Alternate color for completed milestones

[#2]

to add to this list

• Color code by project
• Milestone by portfolio
• Color code by program
• Flipped milestone view wherein date range maps across the top and milestones are populated in the middle - so we can show a quarterly calendar with all projects and milestones over that quarter.

[#3]

I could not agree with this more. I get requests for this so frequently. Also a print-friendly version of it after these fields are added/changed and everything is sorted so it could be used for meetings as needed.

[#4]

Agreed! The milestone view is one of the reasons we purchased Workfront, only to find we could not sort, group, export, or keep the column headings on the screen while scrolling through the list.

To add to this list:

The view should show you if it is not a full list, so if we have a section of the Milestone View called "Direct Mail", it should say somewhere (like a dashboard) that it is only showing 10 out of 20 options or whatever it is. Scrolling all the way to the bottom of the entire milestone report to hit Show More when you aren't even sure which sections of the report aren't showing all of their entries is confusing.

Also add to it milestone view against the baseline. For example, compare baseline against current planned dates.

[#7]

I would definitely like to see Workfront allow for flexibility in what is presented in the Milestone view. It is valuable but very limiting in how the data is presented. We simply want to add the project 'status' to the view which seems like it would naturally already be included but I have no way to provide that information.

[#8]

We completely agree with this idea! We like the format and colour scheme of the milestone view but we would really like to add additional fields/columns to milestones e.g. project status, task status, calculated custom fields.

This one has been gaining some traction; up to 36 votes! Can the magic number be achieved by EOM? :)

[#10]

We are having a problem with our milestones in that we want to be able to see a project report with EITHER a summarized view of just the HIGH LEVEL milestones as well as a GRANULAR view of the milestones of the children that ladder up to the summarized view.

At this point, we are stuck showing everything which is TMI for our executive team, but removing the ability to show the granular milestones makes managing the work for the regular team tricky.

This request would be SUPER helpful for us.

Yes, this would be great!
