Project Tracking

Very often after a project has started another related project may be started which has an impact on the first project perhaps both in time and other resource issues. Can the impact on the first project by the second be clearly demonstrated?

RE: Project Tracking

Hi Lawrie

Thanks for your question - yes it can. You can create a temportary project and then from the insert menu choose file > insert and insert both project files in question. Then click and drag between the predecessors and successors that connect your projects. You can now close your temporary project without saving it. Your two projects are connected and a change in the predecessor in one will adjust the successor in the second file.

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

Andrew
