In the Gantt module, you can convert a milestone to a task (and a [task to a milestone](https://appfire.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/SPM/pages/1918537200)). Milestones can be converted to tasks in [bulk](https://appfire.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/SPM/pages/1918832779).

> 📝 A task converted from a milestone will have the start and end dates the same as the date of the milestone it was converted from.
