FAQ

What is the difference between the two ways to add a record?

  1. The top + Add Record button opens a details panel and is better for entering more complete field information.
  2. The bottom + button adds an empty row directly and is better for faster entry.
  3. If you need to add many records in sequence, use the top panel and enable Continue adding after submit.

Why does a new record not appear on the timeline?

  1. Check whether the record was saved successfully.
  2. Confirm that the start date and end date fields are filled.
  3. If the table requires Gantt date mapping first, complete that setup and then check the timeline again.

Can I recover a record after deleting it?

  1. If you just deleted it, press Ctrl+Z immediately.
  2. If other actions have already happened, first check whether Undo is still available.
  3. If the page was closed, review your team’s current history or recovery method.

How can I add multiple records more efficiently?

  1. Open the details panel from the top + Add Record button.
  2. Select Continue adding after submit.
  3. After each submission, keep entering the next record without reopening the panel.
