    * Date: Select to create a date-driven milestone. When you use

     this milestone condition type on a contract, you associate it with

     a date specific to that contract. The milestone is triggered

     when the system date reaches the date that you have specified

     for the condition.

    * Milestone: Select to link a milestone with another milestone.

    If selected, you must enter a Milestone Source and a Days Lag.

    * SQL: Select to associate the milestone with a SQL statement you

     wrote. SQL milestones enable you to create custom milestones

     that are specific to your business.

    * User Initiated: Select to create a milestone condition that is satisfied

     when a user manually updates the condition status from Pending

     to Ready. An example would be a service contract where billing cannot occur until a signed work order is received from the customer.
