Hi Cori,
Thank you for reaching out. My name is Furkaan, a user just like you. I’d be happy to help you with your concerns. Microsoft Teams offers several ways to create and manage timelines. Here are the primary options:
Project and Roadmap App: Directly within Teams: This app is specifically designed for project management and roadmaps. Key features: Add projects and roadmaps as channel tabs. Input dates and additional information for tasks and milestones. Visualise progress over time. Collaborate with team members on the timeline.
