multiple milestones in a project

Currently only one milestone f each type can be added for a project. As our projects can run through several campaigns over years of its duration, we'd like to set the same milestone several times in a single project to properly report our timelines.

    We ended up creating custom forms to help work around this behavior. It would be far better if Workfront integrated it. Users transitioning from MS Project seem to find this the biggest issue.

    I just fielded another request for this today. It would make life easier for our PMs. Their workaround at the moment is to set the "Go-Live" milestone for the next upcoming go-live, then once it has passed, they move it to the next go-live task. We also have a custom form we use for milestones, but these don't show on Milestone Path report views....we really would like Workfront to support it properly.

    Coincidently I just went through this yesterday. I ended up creating additional milestones (i.e. Go Live 1, Go Live 2, Go Live 3, etc.)

    It is not ideal but got us through for the time being. We have a calendar which shows all of the Go Live Milestones. I had to create a filter which filtered on all of the Go Live milestones.

    Definitely would be nice to have. Especially for PMs that have multiple Go-Live dates within a Project.
