How do I link projects together

RE: microsoft project

Hi Liz

Thank you for your question. One way to link projects is to create a new blank project and from the Insert menu choose Project... then browse to find the first project you are looking for. Then repeat the process to add more projects as needed. You can then click and drag between the bars that represent each task to create links across multiple projects. If you need to change the link from FS to one of the other types of link try double clicking the link and choosing the correct type of relationship from the menu.

I hope this helps - let us know if you have other questions.

Kind regards,

Andrew

MS Project tip:

Link tasks using predecessor column - project

a. First, note ID number of the task you want to link to (predecessor). Then, in the predecessor column of the task you want to link to (successor), type the predecessor task's ID number.
b. The link will be a Finish to Start (the default type).
c. Or you can add in a code for a different relationship type
i. SS = Start to Start
ii. FF = Finish to Finish
iii. SF = Start to Finish
d. You don't have to type the task ID numbers in any specific order, but you must separate multiple tasks with commas.
