status dashboard, status indicators
Status dashboard solution extends ConceptDraw DIAGRAM software with templates, samples and vector stencils libraries with graphic indicators for drawing the visual dashboards showing status data.
"Dashboards give signs about a business letting the user know something is wrong or something is right. ...
Balanced Scoreboards and Dashboards have been linked together as if they were interchangeable. However, although both visually display critical information, the difference is in the format: Scoreboards can open the quality of an operation while dashboards provide calculated direction. A balanced scoreboard has what they called a “prescriptive” format. It should always contain these components (Active Strategy) ...
(1) Perspectives – groupings of high level strategic areas.
(2) Objectives – verb-noun phrases pulled from a strategy plan.
(3) Measures – also called Metric or Key Performance Indicators (KPIs).
(4) Spotlight Indicators – red, yellow, or green symbols that provide an at-a-glance view of a measure’s performance.
Each of these sections ensures that a Balanced Scorecard is essentially connected to the businesses critical strategic needs.
The design of a dashboard is more loosely defined. Dashboards are usually a series of graphics, charts, gauges and other visual indicators that can be monitored and interpreted. Even when there is a strategic link, on a dashboard, it may not be noticed as such since objectives are not normally present on dashboards. However, dashboards can be customized to link their graphs and charts to strategic objectives." [Dashboard (business). Wikipedia]

Conversely, to move the project end date to an earlier date, you must reschedule the dates of tasks of critical path. During the life of a real project often happens that the critical path changes the time to time, because the tasks may be completed sooner or later than they were planned. A task stops to be critical when it is executed, since more it does not affect the execution of subsequent tasks and on the project finish date.
