Extension of Projects
Roadmap
The view from above: milestones and dates over the real projects, to tell client and team what lands and when.
What you can do
Put a piece of work on the timeline
Because the bar of a project is drawn from the dates of its tasks, first to last.
Open a project and look at its tasks
To find out what is inside a bar that runs longer than it should.
Frame the stretch of time you care about
So the current month is not squeezed flat by a whole year.
How it works
See what ships, and when, in three steps.
- 1
Open the roadmap.
- 2
One row per active project, with its bar and the share of tasks already done.
- 3
The vertical line marks today, and the footer says how many projects are showing out of how many.
How to use it
The Roadmap steps, one by one, are in the manual.

- Gantt and earned value (EVM) over the roadmap
What it solves
Answering “where is this at?” for a client or a colleague without opening a board. The roadmap shows, on a timeline, when each project delivers, with its bar and the percentage of finished tasks.
Who it is for
For anyone who has to say what is coming and when: whoever runs several projects at once, whoever answers to a client or whoever needs to see at a glance which ones are lagging. It is an extension of Projects: it lives in its card in the Store and is installed with it.
What you can do
See one row per active project with its bar, a vertical line marking today and a footer saying how many projects you are seeing out of how many. A project’s bar is drawn from its tasks’ dates, from the first to the last: with a start and a due date it shows as a bar, with a single date, as a milestone.
Open a project with the arrow on its row to see its tasks on the same axis, with the color of their status or priority, and frame the period by choosing the axis scale —week, month or quarter—, going back to today or using “Fit all”, which stretches the axis from the oldest date to the furthest.
Filter by name from the window bar, or by progress with the chips —at risk, in progress, almost done or completed—, and cut the noise with “Hide unplanned” and “Hide completed”. Inside a project, “Schedule” and “EVM” put figures on its deviation in cost and in time: what was planned, what was earned and what was spent.
What to keep in mind
The roadmap stores nothing of its own: it is drawn from the tasks’ dates, and if you change or remove a date the timeline redraws itself. A project with no dated task cannot be drawn and appears in the list of the ones that are missing. Schedule and EVM come with this same app: without it they do not appear.
Frequently asked questions
- What does a project need to appear on the timeline?
- At least one dated task. With a start and a due date the task is drawn as a bar and with a single date as a milestone; a project with no dated task appears in the list of the ones that cannot be drawn.
- What does the percentage on each bar mean?
- The percentage of the project’s finished tasks. The vertical line marks today and the footer says how many projects you are seeing out of how many.
- Can I keep only the projects that are lagging?
- Yes. The chips filter by progress —at risk, in progress, almost done or completed— and the search box in the bar filters by name. “Clear” undoes all the filters at once.
- Where do I see the deviation in cost and in time?
- Inside the project: “Schedule”, in the planning group, and “EVM” next to it, which puts figures on what was planned, earned and spent. Both tabs come with the roadmap.
