# Milestones
|
|
|
|
Milestones allow you to organize issues and merge requests into a cohesive group,
|
|
optionally setting a due date. A common use is keeping track of an upcoming
|
|
software version. Milestones can be created per-project or per-group.
|
|
|
|
## Creating a project milestone
|
|
|
|
>**Note:**
|
|
You need [Master permissions](../../permissions.md) in order to create a milestone.
|
|
|
|
You can find the milestones page under your project's **Issues ➔ Milestones**.
|
|
To create a new milestone, simply click the **New milestone** button when in the
|
|
milestones page. A milestone can have a title, a description and start/due dates.
|
|
Once you fill in all the details, hit the **Create milestone** button.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Creating a group milestone
|
|
|
|
>**Note:**
|
|
You need [Master permissions](../../permissions.md) in order to create a milestone.
|
|
|
|
You can create a milestone for several projects in the same group simultaneously.
|
|
On the group's **Issues ➔ Milestones** page, you will be able to see the status
|
|
of that milestone across all of the selected projects. To create a new milestone
|
|
for selected projects in the group, click the **New milestone** button. The
|
|
form is the same as when creating a milestone for a specific project with the
|
|
addition of the selection of the projects you want to inherit this milestone.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Special milestone filters
|
|
|
|
In addition to the milestones that exist in the project or group, there are some
|
|
special options available when filtering by milestone:
|
|
|
|
* **No Milestone** - only show issues or merge requests without a milestone.
|
|
* **Upcoming** - show issues or merge request that belong to the next open
|
|
milestone with a due date, by project. (For example: if project A has
|
|
milestone v1 due in three days, and project B has milestone v2 due in a week,
|
|
then this will show issues or merge requests from milestone v1 in project A
|
|
and milestone v2 in project B.)
|
|
* **Started** - show issues or merge requests from any milestone with a start
|
|
date less than today. Note that this can return results from several
|
|
milestones in the same project.
