Description

The Task Dependency Editor is used to create, edit, and delete task dependencies. For convenience, tasks can also be inserted, deleted or edited.

The tasks are ordered in accordance with Work Breakdown Structure.

The symbols for summary tasks, tasks and milestones is shown below:

As the Task and Milestone are sub items to the Summary task, they are indented. Also note that the WBS code is displayed along with the name.

In the following figure a Finish-Start dependency has been inserted to make Milestone depend on Task.

As shown below, an item consists of three different selection areas:

Item area	Select the item for editing
Start area	Used for creating Finish-Start and Start-Start dependencies
Finish area	Used for creating Finish-Start and Finish-Finish dependencies
