Desktop planning software · light and dark interface options · lifetime 1-seat licence · no browser tab required
Keep tasks and timeline together
Set calendars around the job
Shape fields for your workflow
Bring supported project files in
Start with a real plan
Create the first task, shape the task table, and let the Gantt view tell the story beside it. FieldLine Planner is designed to keep the details and the sequence in the same workspace from day one.
A workspace that adapts
Every job has its own vocabulary. Add the data you need, control the columns that remain visible, and keep the planning view readable without losing the information behind it.
01 / Configure
Bring existing schedule fields into the task table where they can help the team make decisions.
02 / Organize
Insert, hide, resize, and manage columns so the schedule is easier to scan in the moment.
03 / Read clearly
Adjust titles, alignment, width, and header wrapping for a task table that works at a glance.
Make the project familiar from the first review. Planner keeps your task rows and Gantt timeline side by side, so the plan reads like the job rather than a stack of disconnected screens.
Make the plan yours
Move beyond a fixed task list. Add task or resource fields, give those fields a useful shape, and review the values in the same workspace as the Gantt chart.
Custom fields
Choose a task or resource field type, add it to the project, and make room for the data your team actually tracks.
Field configuration
Give a field a name, choose its value source, and inspect a live preview before you apply the change to the project.
Formula preview
Use the formula field workspace to choose source fields and functions, then review the calculated values in the project preview.
See the signal
Start with the project as a whole, then define a focused view for the tasks or resources that need a decision today.
Custom filters
The filter workspace separates task and resource views. Create a saved definition when you need the same lens again.
Start with tasks or resources, then choose the fields that belong in the question.
Combine conditions to isolate matching records or draw attention to them in the current view.
Save a filter when a team needs to return to the same perspective during planning.
Working time
A schedule should reflect the time your team can actually use. Review the default week, define working weeks, and add date-specific exceptions inside the Planner workspace.
Use calendar controls as part of normal project review; validate schedule outcomes against your own project requirements before you act on them.
FLORA for Planner
FLORA brings local, advisory guidance into FieldLine Planner. Ask about tasks, links, calendars, progress, the critical path, and resource capacity—while every project edit stays with your team.
Light theme available. These screenshots show FieldLine Planner’s home and Gantt workspace in a brighter desktop interface.
Planner guidance, on this device
FLORA provides schedule guidance in the workspace. You review the answer, decide what matters, and make any task, date, link, or resource change yourself.
Bring tasks, links, calendars, progress, and project context into a clearer question.
Use FLORA beside the Gantt workspace to investigate the critical path and what to check next.
FLORA chats stay in the guidance window and are not saved with the project.

How to read this: Year 1, Year 2, Year 3, and Year 5 each show the payment due in that individual year—not a cumulative total. That is why FieldLine Planner is $0.00 after its initial lifetime purchase. The final column shows cumulative five-year spend, where one FieldLine seat remains $199.99 while GanttPRO Business reaches $1,020 at its displayed rate.
Public list prices were checked October 10, 2026 and are calculated as rate × paid planning seats × 12 months. They exclude tax, discounts, billing changes, add-ons, implementation, support packages, and custom or enterprise quotes. GanttPRO advertises lower prices for larger teams; actual quoted prices can differ. Products and feature sets differ, so this is a cost illustration—not a feature-for-feature quote.
Before you plan
Practical information about files, schedule controls, FLORA, and the planned Store release.
FieldLine Planner is a Windows desktop planning workspace for building and reviewing task tables, Gantt charts, fields, filters, and working-time information in one project view.
Yes. Start with a blank project, enter tasks in the task table, and build the schedule in the Gantt-chart workspace. Add detail as the plan takes shape.
Yes. Planner includes task and resource custom fields, field settings, entered values, and formula-based fields. Use the field preview to inspect results before applying the change to the project.
Yes. Use Custom Filters to define task or resource conditions, save a filter definition, apply the matching view, or highlight matching work in the current workspace.
Yes. The working-time controls include default-week, work-week, and date-exception views, along with calendar copy and creation controls. Review calendar changes against your organisation’s schedule rules before you rely on the result.
Planner includes baseline tools and baseline information in the project workspace. Use your team’s normal schedule-review process to validate baseline decisions and project changes.
Planner can import .mpp, .mpt, and MSPDI XML files into its own .flproject local project format. It does not write native MPP files. Planner is not presented as full Microsoft Project feature parity, so review complex imported schedules carefully before using them as project controls.
Planner saves its working project in the .flproject format. Keep projects in the locations, backup routines, and access-control processes that suit your organisation. Store activation, updates, and any separately selected services can have their own network requirements.
FLORA is FieldLine Planner’s Offline Reasoning Assistant. It runs locally in the Planner workspace and provides advisory guidance about schedule context—such as tasks, links, calendars, progress, the critical path, and resource capacity. FLORA never edits your project; you review the guidance and make any plan change yourself. Chats stay in the FLORA window and are not saved with the project.
The planned Microsoft Store price is $199.99 USD for one lifetime planning seat. It is a one-time licence, not a recurring software subscription. The page’s marketplace button is a placeholder until the final FieldLine Planner Store listing is published.
Yes. FieldLine Planner is priced one-to-one: each person who needs the Windows planning workspace needs one $199.99 USD lifetime licence. For example, 50 planning seats are 50 one-time licences. Those same licences have no recurring subscription renewal in later years.
We plan to offer the FieldLine suite for $299.99 USD, a saving of $99.99 versus two individual planned $199.99 purchases. A combined Microsoft Store bundle listing is not published yet; explore FieldLine PDF while the bundle offer is prepared.
