How can I display the usage period in my project overview?

You can choose to display each project only on the days that fall within its usage period or its planning period, rather than seeing it across its entire planning period by default. This is possible from two modules.

My Schedule Projects

1. Go to the 'My Schedule' module and navigate to Projects.
2. Choose one of the options under "Only show the days in the project that fall within."

1. Go to the 'Projects' module.
2. Click Overview and choose one of the following: Per day, Calendar, or Timeline.
3. Click Show and, under "Only show the days in the project that fall within," select one of the options.

This is especially useful when:

• You run the project overview on a screen in the office to check when shows and events are happening. With only the planning period visible, no one can tell which days are event days.
• A project has several subprojects spread across weeks. The planning period displays the whole range as one block, while the usage period shows exactly when each subproject happens.
