A list of task dates never shows you the shape of a project. The project view draws every WBS task as a bar on an interactive Gantt chart — positioned by its start, finish and duration, sequenced by its predecessor dependencies. Drag or adjust dates to reschedule, switch between an order-planning Gantt and a resource-wise Project Gantt Chart, and watch progress fill in against the plan.
The Gantt reads the tasks and predecessors in your Work Breakdown Structure, draws them as bars over time, and lets you reschedule by adjusting dates. Nothing is planned on a wall chart.
Open the project view and switch to its Gantt Chart, and the whole project becomes one picture. Every WBS task is drawn as a bar positioned by its start, finish and duration, so the sequence, overlaps and total span of the job are visible at a glance instead of scattered across a list of dates. It is the project's schedule dashboard — what is planned, what is running and what is behind — all on a single screen.
The Gantt does not invent its own order — it reads the predecessor dependencies you set on the WBS tasks. Because each task records its parent task, the chart sequences the bars so a task that must follow another sits after it: cut before weld, foundation before erection, design before fabrication. The sequence on the Gantt is the sequence in the project, so a slip in an early task shows its knock-on down the chain.
One schedule, two ways to read it. The order-planning Gantt lays a project's tasks out over time so you see the sequence and duration of the whole job. The resource-wise Project Gantt Chart loads the same tasks by resource — machines, labour and work centres down the side, time across the top — so you see how each resource is loaded across the project and where the clashes and gaps are. Switch between them without leaving the project.
A schedule is only useful if it moves with reality. Adjust a task's start and finish and its bar moves; change a task's priority and the sequence re-orders around it, so a rush or a slip is a re-date away from a re-planned project, not a rebuilt chart. As each task's progress percentage and status are updated, the Gantt shows how far the project has actually got against the plan, and progress rolls up to the project. Milestone and schedule alerts keep owners posted, and Dhruv AI answers plain-English questions on schedule slippage.
The project view's schedule dashboard — every WBS task drawn as a bar on one timeline, planned, running and behind.
Each task positioned by its start, finish and duration, so the length of a bar is the length of the task.
Predecessor links from the WBS order the bars, so successors always follow the tasks they depend on.
A Gantt of the project's tasks over time — the sequence and total span of the whole job in one picture.
The same tasks loaded by resource — machines, labour and work centres — to see each resource's load across the project.
Adjust a task's dates or priority and the schedule re-orders around it, feeding progress tracking as work proceeds.
A schedule you can't re-order is a schedule you abandon the first time a task slips. Here is the difference — and for the fundamentals, read our Gantt chart scheduling guide.
The Gantt chart is the interactive schedule view on the project view. Every WBS task is drawn as a bar positioned by its start, finish and duration, so the whole project's timeline is one picture instead of a list of dates. It acts as the project schedule dashboard — showing what is planned, what is running and what is late — and is fed directly by the tasks and dependencies in the Work Breakdown Structure.
There are two Gantt views. The order-planning Gantt lays the project's tasks out over time so you can see the sequence and duration of the whole job. The resource-wise Project Gantt Chart loads the same tasks by resource — machines, labour and work centres down the side, time across the top — so you can see how each resource is loaded across the project and spot clashes and gaps before work starts.
Predecessor dependencies from the WBS drive the ordering on the Gantt. Because each task records its parent (predecessor) task, the Gantt sequences the bars so a task that must follow another sits after it — cut before weld, foundation before erection. The dependencies you set on the tasks are what give the Gantt its sequence; you do not redraw them separately.
Yes. The schedule is driven by each task's start and finish dates and its priority, so adjusting a task's dates moves its bar and reschedules the project around it. When a task slips or a priority changes, you re-date or re-sequence and the Gantt reflects the new plan — so the schedule stays a live picture of reality rather than a snapshot that goes stale.
As each task's progress percentage and status are updated, the Gantt shows how far the project has actually got against the planned bars, and task progress rolls up to the project's overall progress. Because the Gantt, the WBS tasks and the per-task Bill of Resources all run on one platform, the schedule you plan is the one you track and cost against — cloud or on-premise, across India and worldwide.
