Customize Project color selection for customizable project phases.
When defining/setting up a project, it would be great if it was possible to decide how many phases a project should have. Also to be able to define the names of the phases that suits my company e.g. Planning, Mobilizing, Operation, Demobilization, Reporting, Invoicing,...
And at the same time define the duration for each phase and what kind of colors the phases should have.
We have added project phases in the latest release https://hubplanner.com/new-scheduler-2-0-released/

Hi,
We are currently in the progress of adding more depth to the project bookings. This will allow you to
* Add a Custom Booking Color
* Set Booking Categories (Can do today, could be phases)
* Associate a booking with a resource custom fieldWe are also creating an unassigned row where you can drop work which is yet to be planned.
With Project Custom Fields you should already be able to set up and define custom phases for your Projects. You could also create a Group with the client / bigger project name and then within that group create phases as individual projects.
Hopefully some of those suggestions help in the mean time.

Whilst a different reason I think this would server the same requirement as we have. Whilst we plan projects in totality the breakdown of the actual work we will do varies significantly from week to week depending on the availability of resources and the whims of the customer or third parties. To be able to have some individual components of a much bigger project that could have a custom colour (and status importantly) we would be able to identify the bits which were "booked" and the bits which had some flexibility. Currently it's either the whole project is "booked" or it's all "floating" with nothing in between.

Allowing for custom project statuses in addition to the 5 that are included by default would allow us to easily see the phase of the project at a glance. In this way we could tell if a resource is actively working on development, support items, bug fixes, or designs.
