A planner decides what work happens, in which order and when. In Superwise you build the schedule of a project, keep it up to date, and compare it with the progress that site logs.

## What you do each day

- Build or change the schedule of a project.
- Check the tasks and the bars on the Gantt chart.
- Read the progress that site has logged.
- Keep the documents of the project in order.
- Keep the planning masters up to date, such as templates and working calendars.

## The screens you use most
