Projects & Schedule
Step-by-step guides for projects & schedule in Monument.
- 1Start your first project VideoGive a new commission a code, a name, and a client from the schedule, then move into its own working view.
- 2Model your project VideoDraw a project's span and its stages on the timeline, then link them so the schedule reschedules itself.
- 3Read and rebalance the swimlanes VideoRead the resource swimlanes on the schedule, their capacity lines, utilisation, and red overflow, then rebalance work so the programme stays deliverable.
- 4Give overhead a home with admin projects VideoCreate a non-billable admin project for studio overhead, then log time against it exactly like a client task, without it ever touching an invoice.
- 5Structure large projects VideoBreak a large, multi-building programme into a deep dated hierarchy, and use the Gantt depth control to move between a one-line overview and full detail.
- 6Get oriented on the schedule VideoLearn to move around a busy firm-wide schedule: focus on one project, regroup the resource swimlanes, open a project up to its stages, and change the zoom.
- 7Baselines and versions VideoFreeze the working schedule at two real moments, an initial proposal and a signed contract, then compare the live plan against sign-off to see exactly how far things have drifted.
- 8Change Gantt bar colours VideoGive one stage its own colour on the schedule so it stands out from every other bar at a glance.
- 9Set a revenue target on the schedule VideoGive the resourced schedule a monthly revenue goal, watch it plotted as a line on the revenue graph, and save it into a reusable schedule report.
