Linking Tasks

How do I link tasks finish to start?

RE: Linking Tasks

Hi Sarah

Thanks for your question. The fastest way to link two tasks is to click on the bar of your first task in the Gantt chart and drag to the bar of the task that will be your successor. Once you let go you'll get a link drawn between your tasks, Finish to Start.

You can also block select multiple tasks and click on the link icons task. You can also double click on the successor task and from the predecessors tab choose the task you want to link to.

Hope this helps - do let us know if you have any further questions.

Kind regards,

Andrew

RE: Linking Tasks

Hi Sarah

There are at least five ways of doing this. Three of the most common ways however are:

left click (and drag) from one bar in the Gantt chart to another
block select two or more tasks and click on the link tasks button on the toolbar
double click a task and from the predecessors tab choose a task

Hope this helps - do let us know if you have any further questions.

Thanks,

Andrew
