| # Pianificazione The Pianificazione module contains the scheduling information for projects. You use this module to define project plans and the associated activities and milestones. Plan The planning parameter plans cover the default project plan and details that relate to the external scheduling package, including currency, time unit, and details of code lengths. Milestone An activity of zero days that usually represents a significant event in the project is called a milestone. In many cases, a milestone is the completion of a phase for a major deliverable. Milestones can be used to trigger invoicing and the calculation of earned value. Activity relationships An activity relationship indicates that a certain activity (successor) cannot start or end until another activity (predecessor) starts or ends. The activities must be sequenced accurately to provide realistic schedules. Baselines The baseline is a snapshot of the active plan's scheduled activities' start and end dates. External scheduling package Project uses external scheduling packages, for example, Microsoft Project to determine scheduling information of the activity structure. You can use this scheduling information for an activity budget and a time-phased budget. External scheduling interface Export a project to an external scheduling package such as Microsoft Project by using an XML file. After you maintain the project plan in the external scheduling package, you can import the updated scheduling information to LN. |
