The Scheduled Horizon in PMI shows how far into the future schedules are active and where PMI’s SMART forecast begins.

In Legacy Tables and Schedule Views:

  • Red vertical line = Today
  • Dashed green vertical line = Scheduled Horizon
  • Beyond the green line, users can manually enter schedules. If left blank, PMI auto-generates SMART hours.

In the Day-to-Day (Labor Graph) View:

  • Dotted black vertical line = Today
  • Dashed green vertical line = Scheduled Horizon

These visual markers help you compare scheduled hours with PMI’s suggested SMART schedule.

If you don’t see the Scheduled Horizon or Today lines:

  • You may not be in the graph (Day-to-Day) view
  • You may be viewing past or already finalized periods
  • Your user role or cockpit view setup may limit what’s shown

Tip: The Scheduled Horizon is usually set by the Head of Department (HOD) under View Settings — often to a fixed number of days ahead (e.g., 14, 28 or 90). If you don’t see the green line immediately, try using the date picker to advance one month at a time — the Scheduled Horizon may be set further into the future.
