I did add a Timeline function, but it only does an import from other format into Visio.

On the first wizard page, click Information thats already stored in a file. The problem is I don't see a 'Timeline' tab in Vision. On the Gantt Chart menu, click Import Data. For File name, type the name you want to use for your Project file, and then click Save.Ī confirmation message appears when the export is completed. Project timeline is a type of chart which allows visually represent the chronology of works for the project, placing the key points of the project (milestones) on a timescale. We need multiple timelines to show on a page so that we can see which phase each project is in for resource planning. Click Gantt Chart, and then click Create. We have converted the MS Project info to an Excel file. In the Export Timeline Data dialog box, navigate to the folder where you want to save the exported file. Set up a Gantt chart Select File > New, then search for Schedule.Note When you export an expanded timeline that includes more data than appears on the original (such as additional milestones), you are asked if you want to export all of the data or only the data that is shared by all of the timelines. The instructions are pretty straight forward in Visio for exporting a file from Visio and the instructions read as follows: I am trying either import an MS Visio File into MS Project or export an MS Visio File into MS Project.
