Task requested dates
Requested start and Requested end of a task can be defined in the corresponding data fields in the Schedule module or they can be enetered directly in the bar chart.
Calculated dates of the tasks
uncritical
critical

Calc. start and Calc. end are calculated by clicking on the  Calculated schedule menu item button.
Uncritical means: Total float > 0
Critical means: Total float <= 0
Since in PLANTA project the definition of requested dates on tasks leads to Total float = 0, tasks which do not necessarily lie on the critical path can be critical as well.

/ with actual end
Without delay means: Total float >= 0
With delay means: Total float < 0
Calculated dates of the summary tasks
A summary task is a task in the structured schedule consisting of sub-tasks which are summarized here. Information on the summary task, such as duration and dates, is determined automatically from the sub-tasks.
Actual datesThe respective bars are white hatched if the Splitting parameter is deactivated, and gray hatched if the parameter is activated.

Actual start and, if available, Actual end, otherwise Latest time recording date of a task, are calculated from the respective dates of the resources assigned to the task by clicking on the  Calculate schedule menu item button or by setting them manually.

Latest dates

Calc. start and Calc. end of a task are calculated by clicking on the  Calculated schedule menu item button.

Task delay
A delay exists if Calc. end of a master milestone is later than its Latest end.
Task overlapping
Overlapping = possible delay of task successor when using soft links. For further information, see here.
