How to create task links

RE: Microsoft Project

Hi Eamon

Thanks for your question.

Try one of these:

in the predecessor column for your successor task type the ID or Row number of the predecessor followed by the relationship you wish to make (eg 4FS)

Hover over the bar of the predecessor and when you can see the four headed arrow left click and drag to the bar of your successor. Let go to link (FS) Double click the link to switch to a different kind of relationship.

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