Project CodeOptionally specify which project is associated with this milestone. Useful if you invoice your clients at the project level. Also useful when viewing reports broken down by project, or when using the Project Dashboard.
TaskOptionally specify a DTM task with this milestone. To enable this dropdown ensure that Detailed Task Management is ticked on the project info tab. Eligible tasks must be unavailable for time, cannot have time transferred to it, and cannot have child tasks. For task milestones, the Planned Date column is not editable and determined by the end date of the task. The milestone/task will mirror each other when changed. For example, marking the task complete will mark the milestone achieved. The only time this does not happen is if the milestone has already been billed. In this case the milestone stays as achieved.
