# How to add custom Milestones on Project Schedule Modal?

A specific point within a project that marks the completion of a major task or deliverable

Similar to Phases and Subphases, Custom Milestones offer flexibility in tracking project progress. Instead of using standard Milestones, a Custom Milestone can be named specifically to align with the project's unique requirements. A Custom Milestone can be added to a Project or placed under a Phase or Subphase for better organization.

1.  To add a Custom Milestone to a Project, click **Add** at the top, then select **Add Milestone**. To add a Custom Milestone to a Phase or Subphase, click the three-dot menu on the Phase or Subphase and select **Add Schedule Item > Add Milestone**.
