When using WPS Gantt View Gantt Chart Settings, the most common questions are about required fields, data sync, and collaboration impact; here are 3 frequent questions and practical answers.
FAQ
What fields are required to use the Gantt chart?
- Open the related multidimensional table and enter Gantt view.
- Go to Tools > Gantt Chart Settings.
- Make sure the table includes at least one start-date field and one end-date field.
- Bind those two fields in the settings panel.
Does adjusting the Gantt chart change the original data?
- In Gantt view, press and drag either edge or the middle of a task bar.
- After the drag is complete, check the date fields in the table.
- The start date or end date is updated at the same time.
Why can my collaborators also see the updated schedule?
- Confirm that you are working in a shared Gantt view.
- Timing changes in that view apply directly to the shared data.
- Ask collaborators to refresh or reopen the view to see the updated schedule.
