Projects rarely proceed as per plan. Real world situations may change a project’s schedule, and the projects may even get delayed. Celoxis provides visual, traffic signal like indicators to indicate schedule and cost health of a project. A quick glance at the visual health indicators can alert a manager to take corrective action before a setback occurs.

As team members update the progress of their tasks, Celoxis auto calculates the projected finish date of the project. The visual health indicators are displayed by comparing the projected finish date with the Finish (Est).
| Signal | When |
|---|---|
 | Projected Finish Date is less than or equal to the Project's planned Finish i.e Planned Finish. [ Projected Finish <= Planned Finish ] |
 | Projected Date exceeds the Planned Finish. [ Projected Finish > Planned Finish AND Present date < Planned Finish ] |
 | Present date has exceeded the project Planned Finish. [ Present date > Planned Finish AND Project % Comp < 100% ] |
 | Project has not yet started, and the project start date is in Future. |
 | Project is in "Planning" or "Closure" stage. |
