Relationship Types - The Majority of Relationships Should be Finish to Start Section of the Schedule Check Report Dialog Box
Overview
Use this section to view the percentage of each relationship type in the schedule. To ensure schedule stability, the majority of relationships should be Finish to Start.
Only a subset of all the internal and external links in the open projects are checked. Any links between activities that both have actual finish dates are removed from the subset to create the list of links checked for relationship type. The Actual percentage is calculated as the number of links found that match the check divided by the total number of subset links checked.
