Use this procedure to edit the task dependency relationship, such as predecessor or successor, the names of the dependent tasks, and so on. You can delete dependencies using the task dependencies page.
Follow these steps:
The task dependencies page appears.
The task dependency properties page appears.
Defines the relationship between the current task and the task selected. To have the selected task precede the current task, select Predecessor. To have the selected task succeed the current task, select Successor.
Values: Predecessor, Successor
Default: Predecessor
Defines the type of relationship to set between two tasks.
Values:
Default: Finish-Start
Example: If you select predecessor as the relationship and Finish-Start as the type, the predecessor task is scheduled to finish before the successor task starts. Alternatively, if you select successor as the relationship, and Finish-Finish as the type, the successor task can finish once the predecessor task finishes.
Identifies the lag period between the two tasks.
Default: 0.00
Example: For a Finish-Start type of relationship, create a lag period of five days between the finish date of the predecessor task and the start of the successor task.
Specifies the type of lag between two dependent tasks.
Values: Daily or Percent
Default: Daily
Example: If you enter 5 as the lag and daily as the lag type, a lag period of five days between the tasks is created. Suppose, the duration specified is 100 days, 20 as the lag, and 20 percent as the lag type (20 percent of 100 days). A lag period of 20 days between the tasks is created. A lag time percent is based on the duration of the predecessor task.
