Timeline with markers (Objectives module).

The timeline adjusts dynamically to match Timebox dates (in this case, Timeboxes are called Program Increments or Iterations). It allows you to add Markers representing important events by clicking on the timeline.

For example, markers can represent milestones. 'Milestones are used to track progress toward a specific goal or event. There are three types of SAFe milestones: Program Increment (PI), fixed-date, and learning milestones.' © Scaled Agile, Inc.

If multiple markers fall on the same date you will see a number indicating them:
