Step 4. You can edit the type of a plan-item. Select a row (flag or click it) and click Change Type. Chose from the options and change the plan-item into a product, work package, stage or activity.
Step 5. You can enter and maintain a time planning by:
•adding dates in the columns Start planned and Final planned, or by using the calendar
•using click-and-drag in the Gantt chart.
Step 6. You can add dependencies by clicking a bar and dragging to another bar (see also Working with dependencies on plan-items).
Note: Dependencies to other projects can be entered on the plan-item details page, tab Dependencies.
Step 7. Click Save.
