The concept of milestones is to provide the user with a tool to track the progress of different events that take place during the order flow. Different events could, for instance, be 'Start of production' or 'Shipment of goods.'
Milestones are entered for a customer order line. The milestones can be entered manually or you can choose among different predefined templates for milestones. Start date, lead time, expected finish date, actual finish date, and percentage progress are entered for a milestone.
