Milestone scheduling enables project leads to tailor execution timelines per project location while using a common project template. This flexibility is critical for rolling deployments such as fiber clusters or regional macro site builds.
1. Navigate to the Location Dashboard
Go to Administration → Projects
- Use the search or filter to find the location or site you want to manage
2. Open the Milestone View
Click on the Milestone icon, to enable Milestone view.
As the Milestones haven't been scheduled yet, they will say undefined as per the screenshot below. Click on the calendar icon to set a planned due date for each Milestone.
📝 Note: These changes do not alter the milestone weights or structure from the original template—they are local to this specific project location. Clicking on the delete icon will clear the set due date and not the Milestone itself.
Once your milestone due dates are scheduled, you can actively monitor their status through the Monitoring, Control Panel and Dashboard modules in CloseOut. These tools compare scheduled completion against actual document submissions within the workflow. If required evidence isn’t uploaded by the milestone’s planned due date, the milestone will automatically be marked as overdue and visually flagged in red, making it easy to detect delays and take corrective action across project locations.
