Adding Columns to the Gantt Task Grid

There are default columns displayed in the Gantt task grid, but you can add other columns that use both standard and custom fields.

Note:

We're retiring the Gantt page, and Project Task Gantt, and they'll be deactivated in a future release, no sooner than Spring 2027. We'll continue to support the Gantt page and Project Task Gantt until deactivation, but recommend that you start using Gantt on a project record. Work with your administrator to start using Gantt on a project record.

For more information, see Managing Project Tasks from Gantt on a Project Record.

To define and display additional columns, add fields to these field sets on the Project Task object:

• Gantt Editable Custom Columns
• Gantt Read Only Custom Columns

Note:

These settings are at org level. When you add or remove fields from the field sets, any changes that users have made to the order, size and visibility of their columns in the task grid are discarded.

Restrictions for additional columns:

• Gantt supports the Salesforce field types listed in the topic Custom Field Types in Gantt Columns.
• Columns that use restricted fields are not visible in the task grid. For a list of restricted field types, see the topic Restricted Fields in Gantt Columns.
• You can cut, copy, and paste additional columns. These actions have the same restrictions as other cut, copy and paste actions. For more details, see Cutting, Copying, and Pasting in Gantt.
