How can I link tasks between projects?

RE: MS Project

Hi Nina

If you the projects are using the same resource pool this is easy. Simply open the resource pool and on the resulting dialog box select the option that opens the resource pool and a master file.

This master file will show all the projects and you can then link tasks in the normal way

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.
