Milestone__c

Label: Milestone

A target event used to track project progress. In Time and Materials (T&M) projects, individual milestone records are generally not billable, whereas in Fixed Price or mixed projects all or some generally are. You can group together timecards and expenses, submitted by assigned resources, with milestones on the same project, or associate milestones with a fixed external cost. Milestones have a linear (non-hierarchical) relationship with one another.
