Microsoft recently enhanced Project for the web with a Critical Path filter on the timeline view that makes identifying the critical path and potential delays of a project easier to understand and use.

The Critical path method is a fundamental scheduling approach that is used to graphically show the sequence of tasks required to complete a given project.

For those studying for the PMP exam, you will need to know how this process is done manually.   But when you are in the middle of a larger project or managing a portfolio of projects with many moving tasks, having a tool that easily displays critical tasks in a visual way can save you valuable time.

This visual highlighting of tasks will help project managers explain to their stakeholders what tasks are in danger of missing the overall project finish date, or where resources need to be focused.  This is important information when stakeholders are counting on an on-time delivery, and instrumental in understanding the causes of schedule change.

One important note: All detail tasks must be linked completely to other tasks all the way through your plan.
