Outlookīasecamp Classic’s iCalendar feed for Milestones works with Microsoft Outlook 2007 and Outlook 2010 for Windows (but not previous versions, so make sure you’re using Outlook 2007+). It's not possible to move events from one project to another. But if you don’t see changes showing up immediately, this is why. It depends on the calendar and the settings. Your calendar might only check the iCalendar feed every 30 minutes or some times even only once per day. You can also subscribe to the combined feed of milestones and events across all of your projects by clicking the “Global iCalendar” link at the bottom of the Dashboard page. Then click the “Subscribe to iCalendar” link at the bottom left side of the page. To subscribe, click on a project, then on the “Calendar’ tab. Syncing, integrating with external calendars iCalendar This will let you set an end date for the event.Įnter the end date, and Basecamp will create a spanned event. Your spanned events can even overlap. On this menu, you can choose the ‘Make this a multi-day event’ option. To create a spanned event or milestone, click the “Add a new event button”. Spanned events as a Gantt chartīasecamp supports spanned milestones & events, which can be used to create Gantt-style charts. That gives us a spanned event that covers all the days of the project phase we need it to. The event setting is fine so we’ll add this event to the Calendar. Since we want it to span a few days, click the multi-day event link and choose the end date. Let’s click on the day we want it to start and then give it a phase title. To do that, just click on the Calendar tab to pull up this month. Phases and spanned eventsĮvents and milestones can be spanned across several days so they’re perfect for project phases. If you need to delete it, click on the event and use the small trashcan icon in the bottom right of that window. To add an event to the calendar, just click on the day you want it added, fill out the popup window, and click “Add this event." If you need to move that event, just click on it, change the date, and click that add button again.

You don’t have to go into a project to add an item to that project’s calendar. When you add an event or milestone from the global Dashboard calendar, you’ll see a pulldown that lets you select the appropriate project. You can also add events or milestones to any project on the calendar on the Dashboard. You can even use spanned events to label project phases. Spanned events let you designate events that last more than one day.

Events don’t have checkboxes and aren’t marked late.Īn event might be “Manager meeting” while a milestone might be “Bakery“Launch." You can use events or milestones any way you’d like, of course. A milestone has a checkbox and is marked late if the date passes without the checkbox being checked off. When you add something to the calendar you’ll see two options: You can make the item an event or you can make it a milestone. To add an entry, click either the Add a new event button or just click on the correct date in the calendar.

In the Global Dashboard, you’ll see all the milestones and events from all projects while the calendar tab in a specific project will show those for that individual project. With the Basecamp calendar, you’ll see milestones and events laid out in a typical calendar view. Events won’t shift when you shift a milestone and can’t be marked “completed." Events are not a part of templates. Events are good markers for meetings or travel plans in addition to celebrations.
