For example, if your start date for a record is January 1 and your end date is January 3, the record will appear as three days long (spanning from the beginning of January 1 to the end of January 3). In the Gantt view, end dates are considered to be inclusive. The 'Start date field' and 'End date field' are used to define the duration for each record when it's displayed on the Gantt chart. We'll try to automatically fill in these settings for you during the installation, but you may want to adjust them yourself to make sure they reflect the data you want to use. The first group of settings you can configure are data settings, which includes the table and view you want to use for displaying records, and the start and end date fields needed to use the Gantt view.

The Gantt view will be created, after which you can configure your data to display in the chart. Check out this support article for more information on creating new views. Then select 'Gantt' from the list of available view types. To add the Gantt view, click on the 'View' button near the top-left hand corner of your base. A Gantt chart will let you visualize how different activities depend on each other with arrows (called dependencies) connecting the different bars. In many cases, a project plan or schedule will require that activities be performed in a certain order (for example, a particular contract needs to be signed before construction can begin). The length and position of each bar shows the start date, end date, and duration of each activity, and the bars are stacked into rows in such a way that you can easily see at a glance which activities overlap and for how long.

You can use it for project management, production timelines, or resource management.Ī Gantt chart is a type of horizontal bar chart that uses bars to visualize a schedule of certain activities (tasks, projects, events, resource expenditures, etc.) over time. With the Gantt view, you can visualize a schedule of related activities over time - like tasks, projects, or events - on a Gantt chart.
