The Deadline mask allows you to estimate the expected date (trend date) by which a milestone will be reached. These estimates form the data basis for the milestone trend analysis of the evaluation module. Estimates can be submitted on any report date.

The document class consists of the following elements:

• Deadline: This field allows you to enter a number to which the appointment should belong.
• Milestone: The Milestone field defines the milestone for which an estimate for the trend date should be submitted. Milestones can be defined in the Milestone mask.
• Report Date: This field indicates the report date on which the estimate was delivered. The system enters the current date in this field. The information from this field is entered on the horizontal axis during milestone trend analysis and is marked as a symbol in the straight line of the respective milestone.
• Milestone Deadline: The Date field defines the estimated date on which the milestone in question will probably be reached. The information from this field is entered on the vertical axis during milestone trend analysis.
• Employee: This field indicates the processor of the data set, that is, the project team member who defines the trend date for the selected milestone.
• Note: This field allows you to enter comments on the trend date (for example, the reason for a delay).
