Project

Hi Joy

Thanks for your question regarding links in Project. There are several different kinds of link in Project. For example linking tasks allows you to model logic within your plan by showing the relationships between tasks.

There are four kinds of links that connect tasks. They describe whether it is the start or finish of one task (Predecessor) that drives the start or finish a second(Successor) task.

There are several ways to link tasks. One method is to double click a task. Project assumes the task you clicked is the successor so go to the predecessors tab and choose the task that would position your Successor on the Gantt chart. You will see the type drop down allows you to select from the four combinations of:

Finish to Start FS
Start to Start SS
Finish to Finish FF
Start to Finish SF

I hope this helps. Let me know if you need any further information.

Kind regards,

Andrew
